Tim,
Right now I’m treating this as very preliminary. I notified the woman I purchased the 2 Camaros from of my initial findings on this 3rd Camaro they used to own and she will be going into the depths of her house in an attempt to find additional supporting documentation. Apparently, the car was stolen when her husband was on a road trip without her. I even joked with her and asked if it was possible that her husband gave her a false story and secretly sold the car while he was away and didn’t have the heart to tell her. But she was adamant that he wouldn’t have done such. However, she was confident he would NOT have had insurance on the car because he had a tendency not to have such on his play toys. Even though that sounds a bit moronic, I’m having to take it for face value. The other difficulty is she is unaware as to which agency would have taken the police report at the time as the car was being driven on a road trip at the time of its taking.
They owned the car for approximately 8-9 years throughout the 80s from about 1981/82-1990. Her husband restored the car himself at that time and it was red. Hopefully she can find me some more documentation and/or photographs.
With all of this being said...even if it was determined the car was NOT stolen (very unlikely based on her information), the black car being sold as an original with loads of supporting documentation definitely appears to be fraudulently sold as something it’s not.
