Decoding/Numbers / Re: Caveat Emptor...ad is missing 'clone'

Only 1,707 6 cylinder converts produced. I would have left it as found.

I agree, but not everyone out there thinks the same way and they try to pass if off as something it wasn't.

Nice looking car. Sold at Barrett Jackson back in 2014.

What does everyone think about the dum dum on the trim tag rivets?

Proof positive that our policies, safety labels etc have destroyed the natural order of selection and ruined the normal thinning of the herd. We are now left with this. Close you eyes and envision the gleam in his eye, and the pride he took, hanging that on the car!

"gleam in his eye"...now that's funny. . I think there was more than gleam in his eye. Why even do that to a perfectly legimate tag as if no one is going to notice the difference.

Very well done and the right sound track to go with it. I see another two blue vehicles in the stable, tell us more about those.

I predict that if it keeps going the way it is, in 2 years from now he will sell all 3 for $500K. But $500K will not be worth what it is today.

I did not know John but have read many of his articles. My condolences to his family. I think he would be proud of the things he left us and to those on this forum that continue to do the same as he did.

Restoration / Re: Value of 1968 RS?SS When Changing Color

« on: June 18, 2021, 08:39:34 PM »

Mark, personally I think the value of the car will depend on the quality of the restoration rather than just the color alone. You are going to find more buyers looking for the more appealing colors like, black, blue and resale red but then there are others out there looking for originality as well. Here is a link to Camaros.net where the same question was posed for a Fathom Green 69 Z28. It's a good read with lots of opinions.
