Whats your take on this ad?
 
Found this on ebay today:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet...bayphotohosting

His wording is rather interesting. Almost like he is trying to make you think it is a Baldwin Motion, but not really. He references it in the description, but never really says it is one. Tells you how great the BM is, but again never says it is one. then towards the end says it may be a clone. New trend in advertising? What do you think?

"I do not have the build sheet or the sales slip, therefore this may be a clone but a good one"

I'm surprised it's not a retractable hardtop. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

The L-88 is a monster Z-28 engine with the 12 to 1 compression, large valves, solid camshaft, etc. Both engines are for racing, but again 290 HP compared to 435 ( again actual 560) is a big difference. This is quicker than any Z-28…..



Now there is a comparison!!

I think these ads are becoming more confusing(slick) to read than filling out your yearly tax forms......Think H&R Block translates e-bay car ads ..........??

Any of the headlite vacuum hoses or even the headlite washer system hooked up? Maybe a fake RS? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Maybe Alec Baldwin owned it & then sold it to Jon Voight. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Don't know about any of you guys.. but when I click that link it brings up the ebay page on the car for about a second, then kicks over to what "looks like" an ebay sign in page... But if you read the path in the address line of your browser it is obviously not.. Looks to me like another scammer sign in page fishing for logins and passwords to ebay.. Anybody else getting that? I hope you guys aren't typing in your info there. Would hate to see your ebay accounts get hijacked.. Could also give them access to your Paypal and bank accounts... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif I'd suggest go change your passwords now if you signed in there..

thats right Ed, looks like eBait nailed that one and removed another scammer from Nigeria ( no offense to our Nigerian board members here of course)

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif why were we even looking at an RS SS Z28 with an original numbers matching L88? must've been a long winter.

Everyone, sorry if the link caused anyone problems. I had no idea it was a scammer link. I found the ad doing a search for Baldwin Motion while logged in.
