Nice car (AC vert). I wondered why he lied about it?

 

Misleading at best...I didn't see the word "clone" or "replica" mentioned either...

 

I read the ad, if I were bidding, i would think it was the real deal.

 

Maybe he (seller) believes it is ?

Wonder what the reserve is ?

 

Agree about seller believing but if not, a whole lot of baaaaaaaad information. Hard to believe a person would put that in writing He's or she has a lot of you know what (plural of ball).

 

I sent him a message to see if it was the real deal. We'll see what he replies back.

 

You would think if someone was informed enough to know the '68 ragtop Z story they would know a bit about what makes up a Z/28...

 

Well here is his response.

"I bought it as the real deal, I am not an expert on Camaro's. If you can tell me how to find out if it is, let me know and I will be happy to check it out for you."

 

Unreal!

 

"I bought it as the real deal, I am not an expert on Camaro's. If you can tell me how to find out if it is, let me know and I will be happy to check it out for you."

Because that's not the VIN to the Estes car. His VIN is 124678N460092 and the Estes car is more than 10k cars after his.

And he has it listed in the ad as 124678B460092 - which may be a typo, or ... would throw off a future search ...

What's not to believe anyway ... a 1968 'Vert "Z28" - with A/C ... and an Auto (TH350 at that) ... and a 350 ...
oh, and a really crappy aftermarket radio vs. the original's AM/FM ...

That has to be one of the worst Trunk Pan welding jobs I've seen in years :sad:
They could have at least painted the whole dang trunk to match ...

I know what "Pete" would have done if was given this car

But like the lister says - "Good Luck Bidding!" :waving:

Let's try and keep the flaiming down to a minimum here guys.

I don't want to get into too much detail, but I've been in touch with the seller and it appears he may have been sold the car under false pretenses. He's now investigating his options.

Yes, the VIN is a typo in the ad. It should read 124678N460092

You could send him this..

I did, and he said I had too much time on my hands along with the CRG and others providing him info... He said he added some info to his auction but from what I read he's still intent on finding someone to believe it's as he claims...

 

It appears the Seller has now added a note to his auction. I think this person must have been misinformed when he purchased this car.

 

The auction says he has paperwork to prove it. The orig Estes 68 z/28 had its paperwork stolen. I know they have copies, but the originals got taken. Wonder if someone involved with this car might know something about that??

 

The seller told me he has been offered more than $40k for the car, he said the economy is down and he didn't pay the $172k he quoted it sold for at auction...

 

Auction ended.

 

I just found this today as a completed listing on eBay. Very odd story.

however, it really caught my eye because that car looks so much like mine.
I've not seen one that close to mine yet in color scheme, since I had custom white interior made (instead of parchment). Obviously, someone did with this car too. Kinda funny, but I guess all I need are some Z28 badges and z/28 floor mats eh?
