WOW!

hmm, i thought that scratch was assembly line correct :-)

It was probably statistical data that supports that there are no 1000 point cars that exist.

I realize you may be stating this tongue in cheek, but I actually agree. Those subframes were dipped, and many time stacked while awaiting shipping I believe. How can you stack them without scratching them?

Sorry to hijack the thread, but honestly, we tend to way over restore these cars. Don't get me wrong, I like looking at the &quot;perfect&quot; car, and in fact prefer it to the way many of these came from the factory. If I would have left mine as is from the factory, there would be no paint on the bottom one inch of the tail pan. Also the waves in the seam where the roof panel meets the quarter panel were way beyond what I would consider acceptable, so I releaded them to get them straight. Didn't leave the factory that way.
I like the pic on Charley's 70 Z where the assy line worker missed the hole with the screw for the bottom trim piece and just left it out. Also left a big scratch. Were a &quot;restored&quot; car judged with that defect I sure it would get dinged a few points.

Lynn,

I agree with your sentiments. While a 1000/1000 points may represent a perfect score, it does not necessarily represent a perfect car. I have never seen what I would consider to be a perfect restored car.

We recently sold a Chevelle which was awarded 1,000 points out of 1,000 at a national judging venue, it was a spectacular car, one of the best I have ever seen but even that car was not perfect.

Back to this Z28, it is one of the very best overall restored Z28s that I have ever seen

Good luck with the sale Stefano. You have brought some FABULOUS cars to market in the last few years.

I noticed a couple ebay links, but haven't found this one on ebay. Is it listed there?

Again, best of luck with the sale.

[Stefano]

We had it on eBay a few times to get some exposure for the Z28. It is not there now as it has been SOLD.
