Well, I got a reply from the seller:

Quote
I will look into this further. I appreciate the heads-up.

And the auction's been ended, so that's a good sign. Time will tell how/if it gets listed again.

That's great, Ed - talk about a hand grenade in the minnow bucket. Major embarrassment for the seller, glad they removed it.

Shame it was misrepresented, it is a good looking car. If they had only started with the genuine article, it might pull what they were asking.

Regards,
Steve

On the caution sticker, same thing happened with me at the Chevrolet Nationals with a beautifully restored Chevelle inside one of the buildings where you have to be invited. Would not hear anything about it not being corrrect for a chevrolet. I guess it doesn’t help much when the likes of the most popular on-line chevrolet retailers advertise it as correct for various chevrolet models:

A happy (?) ending. After several email exchanges with the ebay seller, he sent me what I'm assuming will be the final communication...

I'm pretty sure its not a real car, I'm inspecting the car now and finding all kinds of red flags. My customer is a straight up guy and knows now Z28 was misrepresented to him. There is third car car, I fear it too falling under the same circumstances...a 1967 Chevelle claimed to be a L78. I will have Brad sell the cars as clones. I will destroy all the fake docs...thank you for all the help.

This is finally a dealer I think we can have some respect for!!!
