Re: 69 Z-28 survivor
[ QUOTE ]
A survivor that has been painted?  [/ QUOTE ] That's not the only thing different from new on the car. I was wondering the same thing. I guess the term's definition has changed.

Re: 69 Z-28 survivor
I agree that it is a nice car for the money.
But, is there anyone that would disagree that "survivor" means unrestored or unchanged in any way?? A rust bucket could be a survivor, but a repainted car can not IMO.

That's not the only thing different from new on the car. I was wondering the same thing. I guess the term's definition has changed. </div></div> The survivor term used by and trade marked by Bloomington folks requires a car be 51+% unrestored to be considered a certified survivor. In theory if a car was repainted but the three other areas were 100% unrestored it would be classified as a survivor, because as a whole it was 51+% unrestored. I am not an expert on their program, but it is my understanding that is there criteria.
