All I can add to this form is what I personally know first hand after just coming home today from BJ and being there the entire week. I'll go a step furthar and say I had a car displayed right next to Kent Waters 69 Camaro Rally green Z/28-RS and talked to him and his wife several times over the course of the week. I even looked at the pictures in question myself being a Camaro nut I was interested to hear all about the car too, its history ect... and let him give me his sale job! Which he's very good at, he's very nice, personable and knows how to promote his product. I saw Ron Pratt come over to the expo and talk with Kent Waters about the car for 30-45min's durning the auction I believe it was Friday afternoon a day before the car ran acrossed the block. He looked the car over and paper work displayed on a cardboard sign board Kent had layed out in front of the camaro as well as a original intake,carb and air cleaner assy that Kent claimed was the original to the car but did say he opt'ed to install a NOS GM original cross ram set up that had never been out of the box until he put it on that car! Never once did I personally ever hear it said the car was a rebody nor did I ever hear that the drivetrain was what did you guys call it "restoration drivetrain?" another words it was being promoted as original in my mind, not a restamp or what else you want to call it..... He told me he did the car in 90 days from start to finish, had to put quarters, rear wheel wells and do extensive body work that the car was in very poor shape when he found it. As I sat in the audience during the auction right before his car went acrossed the block he had people in the audience handing out 8"X11" two sided full color information sheets about the car-I've never seen that done before and also BJ stopped the auction to let Kent Waters come up where the auctioneers stand and talk about the car himself where he claimed it was his "BEST WORK" to date...... There was more truth with that statement then we really knew...
