I don't like it. If d80 equipped it would have a short spoiler, too early for a cowl hood, and I believe too early for the vin stamped by the oil filter. I don't like the pad stamp either. Too early for a 388 block. Wrong headlight bezels, shouldn't have the stainless on the rain gutters. Rust coming thru, no Camaro nameplates on fenders, etc, etc.

I think the trim tag is a repop and I've never seen a Tonawanda engine with DZ  stamp.

In a bit over 2 hrS it will have a new owner, who will believe he has bought a *real* Z28 (true or not) for something over 25K...
the engine is definitely NOT the correct one... so that makes one suspect everything...

 Hmmm...... Isn't the straight 7 number font wrong for a 69 trim tag? Shouldn't it have a curve?

Nice gloss level in the trunk.  He doesn't want any negative comments about the car and you're supposed to keep it to yourself.  Sounds like he's sold questionable stuff before?

 WOW, $31,001 for a questionable car. Obviously the bidders weren't looking at this site.

In my own opinion,

The "purchaser", AKA high bidder, had 263 auctions to his credit on eBay - really makes you wonder if this was a bid-up, or an owner trying to bid the car up to make more from the sale. I've seen similar situations where someone was "selling it for a friend" - turned out to be a situation where the friend was the owner bidding on his own vehicle to increase the bids/activity. A dead giveaway would be if it met a reserve, and then ran into a "non-paying bidder" and got relisted. Not saying this was happening in this case - just makes you wonder, especially when there are sooo many things incorrect about the car.

Too bad - hope no one got snookered, but it sure has the indications.

The letter C in the axle code shows it is not a '69 Camaro rear, but a '70 Nova rear. The the '661 tranny case was not used until the '70 model year, or the late '69 production Camaros.  Should have a '660 Muncie case being an early built car.
