Default Re: Silver ZL1 at Future Classics?

As someone who bought a fake L-48 69 SS in 1997. I learned a valuable lesson. Fraud and dishonesty is rampant in this hobby. Especially in consignment dealerships were the liability does not fall on the dealer.
If you don't bring someone like Mr. Cuneen
or Mr. MacNiesh into the picture you could be in trouble. You have people making new cowl tags new protect-o-plates, dealer m.s.o.'s and some people go so far as to make the paperwork even look old. Just be careful. Joel ILL. Camaro Club

Paul,
Car is a clone / fake, though not for that reason.

I'm just curious to know what makes you guys "so sure" that the L89 convertable is a clone.
I couldn't tell anything from the photos. All I know is what has been written about this car in the past. It has some documentation so what gives this car away? Did someone get burned by this car before?

Thanks for the correction Kurt concerning convertibles. I never would have known had you not mentioned it. Many Thanks, Paul

The history of the car is known. It was a 327 car. Mileage is real.

My "new to me" 1969 Van Nuys L78 Rag Top Camaro does have the bracket bolted to the frame rail but with no reinforcement plate , just as Kurt stated.

Looks like the L89 convertable has gone back into hiding again.
