This car is listed as a "recreation" but retagged none-the-less. Far too early, by VIN, to be an "X" code car. It will be a real car to the next owner. Search 124379N555555

That is very unique VIN and should be easy to remember. How do you like those standard interior door panels with the Black Houndstooth seats?

Pretty funny. Looks like someone wanted "correct" rivits so they sprung for some rosette rivits. Just didn't know they were for the vin plate, not the trim tag.

I like how they say NO RUST and then show you pictures of the bottom of the car and you can clearly see they painted over the rust all around the forward leaf spring (torque box) mounting perch (painting over crap is not restoring)

Now I feel for guys like Gary L who own a True 69 Z and we have knobs out there making bogus ones to make a buck. How can you prevent the real "REAL" camaro's from loosing creditability ???

if the novice buyer starts to look at the camaro as a bogus made-up classic car what then?

not saying camaros will ever be a bogus made-up car in my eyes thats for sure.

Thanks to the Guys at CRG Kurt and all the other guys who (I have forgotten there names at 11 pm. ) have backed up 99% of there information with True Fact Data.
