Sweet!

Nice car.
But it originally was gold and was a L30/M35 and had a POP.

 So that whole impressive accolade writeup is pure BS then?
And I am a Felix the Cat fan! 

Maybe someone should notify Mecum if this is fraud.

Not sweet! 

CRG to the rescue, again!  That explains why there's no JM certification like many of the Mecum Camaros.

I just sent them a message that they need to investigate the car closer..

Thanks Kurt - I emailed Mecum for more info, sent the link to JM & was seriously thinking of going to the auction to try buy this car - if it checked out as a 67Z!

What a great site😀

[KurtS]

I already notified Mecum.

I just heard back from JM - definitely a fake....IMHO Mecum should follow BJ's lead & bring in experts like JM to check out the "rare" original cars.

crazy that this is still going on.

In such a case, would this one be described as 'rebodied'..  or 'with a restoration drivetrain'?     

[cook_dw]

I would venture to guess that one of the owners swapped trim tags & drivetrain.  Keeping its original vin & hidden vins..  Would like to see stampings as to whether or not they are legit or restamps but I betting the latter.  I was contacted by Mecum through email so I gave them the link to this thread. Hopefully this will get resolved.

I received a reply from Mecum also.
To be honest, I  found it offensive. No 'Thanks for letting us know' or anything like that. But requested for me to send detailed photos like I had done an inspection on the car and "Please also include all your contact information".
I sent the tag pic, told them what Jerry said (bogus trim tag), and suggested they should "Auction the car and see what happens....."

[cook_dw]

Lol yeah I got the same email..  We exchanged a couple emails and I got the "thanks for your time & information.."  I said I guess that there's nothing that can be done..  Would hate for someone to put up big money and later find out it wasn't what it was advertised. I guess the old saying is true, Buyer Beware.. 

[Mike S]

 Mecum only wants the money from the sale.
