Caveat Emptor...repro window sticker

From the ad:

So, someone did a frame off restoration and built it the way they liked it, well this one has #s matching and a window sticker to verify it is authentic! This is beyond special!

It is one of the worst reproduction stickers I have ever seen. At least 15 errors, including the omission of the required ZL2 Special Ducted Hood and Z87 Custom Interior.

As for the car...

For $159,000 I would expect alot more than what I see.

The transverse muffler looks like it was used as a jacking point at one time.

The fit of the aftermarket grille is bad.
The RH back up light is crooked- possibly from new holes cut
The front end sheetmetal and alignment is poor. Hood must have been painted before it was fit as the stripes dont even match up with the upper valance striping.

Lots of other things that are not right. Square VIn cutout on dash means that was replaced most likely due to rust.
Chinese brake booster

Theres way more but just these few things doesnt speak to a high quality resto, nor the asking price.

But the VIN and cowl tag look like they are legit but both were most likely off the car at one time.

Aftermarket fenders that were not fixed properly before installed.

Man, that extremely crafted & carefully-worded description reads like the dealership is already expecting to end up in courtroom litigation after the sale of this vehicle. “Just make the dollar today & worry about tomorrow, tomorrow!”
