After working for weeks getting my sheetmetal perfectly aligned,I feel better now. Just saw that white 67 z-28 go for $100,000 on Barret Jackson and the right hand fender was not aligned perfectly. It stuck out at the center quite a bit more than the door.

Maybe it was suppose to be that way? I have heard guys make commnets about the right side fender to door gap,," factory defect , leave it alone".

See the Z 16 chevelle?, How bout that Ramchargers car for 300K!,,

No wonder this board is quite . Got to get back too.

Some people claim that cars that are "too perfect" don't fetch as much as "original un-molested" cars with the original panels as aligned on an assembly line. Just something I had heard.

there was a 70 hemi cuda that sold for $400,000

I know a guy thats heavy into corvettes,especially the early 60's stuff.He says that the true hi-dollar corvette stuff has the original overspray in the door and hood opening,even if its been repainted,that the true "originalist"...his word not mine,are looking for that original "thing" and overspray was one of them in the 60's era of paint and body by hand...not computer and robots like today.He and his "Band of Brothers" on the corvette side rebuild everything just like original roll out was,right down to the tolerances on the assembly manual and some of the stuff is off, a little ,again he says this is the way it really was not the perfection that alot of rebuild are...I call him,a sick man,he just laughs it off!
