ZL1 #9 Barrett Jackson - Where's Waldo

[mockingbird812]

Charley - you are correct in that I mistakenly stated that &quot;<span style="font-style: italic">George</span> made it clear that <span style="font-style: italic">he</span> used another body...&quot; In my mind, George's use of terms regarding another body being used in the restoration are clear enough to me, that an average Joe would understand that this car does NOT have its original body. There is a relatively fine line between mincing words and telling the truth particularly when it comes to these high end cars (i.e. does numbers matching = original engine in our hobby?). IMO, George has not crossed into the realm of mincing words, he has merely used another selection of words to describe his car as not having been restored with the original body.

For the record: my comments are only pertaining to this thread.

This is not a discussion against George.

However, the main point is getting very diluted.

His first post regarding this ZL1 basically told us that he had researched and inspected the car and that 'basically&quot; it had no issues, and that it was NOT a rebody. &quot;The real Body&quot; are his words.

There are many here who knew and were told different, either directly or indirectly by Floyd Garret.

Then once questions were asked, we were told that all the info would be disclosed here, as well as properly represented at auction.

This discussion is taking place <span style="font-weight: bold">PRIOR</span> to the car going across the block and ownership changing hands.
