What would be a price on this car if its real, and only one made?

[/ QUOTE ]
I thought elsewhere in this thread the figure of $200k was mentioned. If that is the case I would say the sellers are not that sure of it.
If it were mine I would price it similar to bid price of
1968 Z-28 vert.

I spoke with the owner of the car at breakfast during scr and seemed to be very nice guy with a super looking nova that I would love to have whether real or not. I say that only because I have no interest here just making a point as an outsider looking in on this after the show or I would of asked him at the table. why no docs shown for proof and why is the "expert" being kept a secret? Two points that make people sceptical both link to non disclosure of details. I know, he doesn't have to do anything but I don't understand why the secrecy especially of an independent expert. I have some land to sell with an expert appraiser by the way if anyone is interested. Can't provide his name or contact info though.. just seems strange.

Bill,
Not taking issue with you at all, so please don't take offense. As I understand it at the moment, the car IS NOT for sale. If it becomes available, and I was an interested buyer, I also would expect the owner to offer some proof of authenticity. Until that point, why should he be 'required' to step up?
As far as the 'Expert'; I refer back to Charley's post. If he chooses to chime in, so be it. If/when he does, I hope it puts all questions to rest. I think most people on this site have nothing but respect for this individual. I guess I just can't understand why everyone 'needs' to know if they're not directly involved in a 'transaction'.
Just my $.02.
Dennis

I never heard any 200K mentioned and that in my opinion would be pretty cheap....

No offense taken Dennis, I understand what you are saying and have sense found out whom the expert is and trust his opinion as others on the site. I also understand the owner has no obligation here and not selling the car. I am looking more from a standpoint of the hobby and historical significance of the car to the hobby full disclosure would be nice. I won't loose any sleep on it. thanks for the civil response and best of luck to the owner of a really cool car.

I would have liked to see the doc's myself, just to say that I'd seen them. This is the second time I've seen that car, both times the doc's were elsewhere.

I have a Cortez Silver car that you still don't have the keys for .
As for this topic.The owner of this car and the guy from Legendary Motorcars was seated at our table at the banquet.Both very nice people.I for one would like to go through Legendary Motorcars on a tour as I think it would be very interesting.I told the owner that I thought that car was KILLER.I'm not a black car guy but man does that car make me .I can't see myself ever owning a car like that,but what a very nice investment.

When someone uses the term "but what a very nice investment" with any of these cars, it me. There have been many that thought that way only to be at some point in time.

Those are just my pennies from heaven.
