I was speaking to someone that purchased a car a few years ago that was restored by someone in North Carolina named Joe Meeks.
Has anyone ever heard of this restorer or know anything about the quality of his work? Thank You- |

I've met him a few times, but don't really know much about his work. I seem to recall he resto'd a '69 COPO Camaro (??).

I guess it could be either of these - the car was purchased at an auction several years ago. He told me the restorer was Joe Meeks from North Carolina but as you know people can always make mistakes when it comes to this stuff. If a Joe Cheeks is a restorer from NC I would assume that this is probably the one he is speaking of.
The car was a 1969 SS/RS L89 tribute car - magenta red with black interior. He told me the car was judged 997/1000 at some event but I dont recall which one he stated. Thanks- |

-----Gotta be Joe Cheeks as he is a real auction "hound", and that sounds like a car he might have had. I rarely have seen him have a car at an auction that wasnt very nice. Comes up with some nice, clean stuff. I dont have any idea how to catch up to him, but someone on the sight will......Bill S

Sounds like a car I have seen for sale in Illinois is that where it is.
