If I had &quot;I-don't-care&quot; amounts of money I could be that guy. &quot;Oh, I bought a fake Hemi-car? Guess I'll drive the hell out of it then.&quot;

J.Macneish is certifying 70 Chevelle's now, does he really know these cars like he knows Camaro's?
I doubt it.

I wonder if in his certification report he mentioned the cheezy Chinese brake booster [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] really, on a LS6 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

i wonder how many spectators were there to see how their old car did in the auction? I know a B J auction was on my bucket list, and i wanted to &quot;check up&quot; on my old Camaro. It didn't make Pratt alot of money................and now that it's been &quot;outed&quot; as a re-body, (finally), it's just a VERY NICE driver, IMO.

I wondered what would happen with that old green Z/28 Pratt bought from a few years ago at a BJ auction. (The big VIN tag swap debacle)?

VIN 124379N509335 that turned out to be a vin swapped car after someone found the ad selling the vin and firewall tags and the VIN seller openly discussed it on Team Camaro?

WOW, I guess they listed it properly as a rebody at Pratt's BJ auction. That is crazy money for any 1969 Z/28 let alone a rebodied one! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

And here is when it sold in 2008 at BJ Las Vegas. Note the difference in the description between then and now. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

2008 description: &quot;Car has been documented and certified by Jerry MacNeish. Car was restored with all GM sheet metal, bumpers and tons of NOS GM parts.&quot;

2015 description: &quot;Documentation has been certified by Jerry MacNeish. Car was re-bodied and restored with all GM sheet metal, bumpers and tons of NOS GM parts.&quot;

Didn't you mean.. 'your old VIN, cowl plate, and paperwork'??? Nothing else from your 'old car' is there anymore is there?? It's a 'rebodied' car, with 'restoration drivetrain'... whatever the h*ll that is....
