Yellow Canadian L89

[ QUOTE ]
The person who ordered the performance cars at Belmont Chev does not recognize this yellow L89 as being one of the cars that the dealer received

[/ QUOTE ] I have two RI hiperf cars [ and a copo camaro]that the guy that ordered them doesnt remember,You cant expect someone to remember every car they dealt with 40 years ago. Just because soemone doesnt remember a specific car, doesnt mean it didnt exist. I would say anyone that is interested in that L89,pay 40 damn dollars and get the paperwork, it will show the dealer and there will be no refuting anything if the dealer on the canada paperwork comes up as Belmont. I mean do you think someone is actually going to claim a car has canadfa paperwork, and then have you contact gm canada and find out it wasnt,seems ridiculous.

The GM of Canada paperwork merely states that the information applies to serial number such and such. No one comes out and verifies that your car is the real deal and not a fake. I have the paperwork for our two Chevelles. Nice to have but just part of the documentation. Any car needs to be checked out VERY carefully.....especially these days. In the last couple of days a guy recognized his old Chevelle on e-bay. It amazingly has the original engine that he didn't sell the car with. Someone else did the restoration too. AMAZING. People with legitimate cars should be more than glad to send their cars through the baptism of fire on the Yenko.net or Chevelles.com websites. Not much gets past these guys. I think that what the Belmont guy might be saying is that this car may not be on the list. The UVIP on '69 el Camino only goes back 3 owners. This indicates that it came from out of province before the first guy bought it. The Camaro may have come into Ontario at some point.

I want to be clear I'm only addressing Chuck's statement above and in no way referring to the Camaro of this thread...but check this link out, no not GM Canada paperwork that was forged but as close as it gets, PHS docs..
And the fraudulent document part is all I'm pointing out...the rest of this situation and why this buyer recv'd what he did is a different story on it's own..

Otherwise, I believe Keith's comments above about 'these days' are right on...sad yes but what things have become in today's world of values..

The odd thing to me is most believe every non doc,wrong drivetrain X44 is a real copo as long as a hole, fuel line or heater box appear with it , but have a hard time with a canada paper car.

More information about the L89 Camaro sold through Belmont Chev. The L89 was confirmed again TODAY by GM of Canada as that serial number Camaro being delivered to Belmont Chev with those options. The guy still does not remember the car being at Belmont Chev and suggests that it may have been done as a Central Office Production Order instead; then still going to that dealer for the customer to pick up.
As Terry would say 'appears to be the real deal'.

[Keith Tedford]

Being an RPO, there doesn't seem to be any reason for this to be a COPO deal.

This fake car is for sale again.

Now owned by a company in Keswick Ontario. If anyone in the US buys this they will have a hard time taking to court a company that probably has no assets. I believe I know who built it, who they got the donor body from etc.

[camaromb]

Yes, the story of how this car was created is known to a small group of dedicated Camaro guys.

Too bad, those are nice cars if they owners were just up front and told the customers what they are, IF THEY REALLY KNOW THEMSELVES?????
