That engine compartment didn't look that good when the general let it leave the house.

That's right.

And it is a fact that each and every restored 1969 Camaro is the same.

At all of the big shows the Norwood guys noted custom cars on display that were called "restored" by their proud owners.

That's just the way it is. The big money, the big award- always seems to go to the "beyond perfect" beauty queen.

If people want something, and have the money to do it, I think that is what happened here. An example, I live in an area of where the average home is 300-450K. Some super rich folks love the lot next door, tear down the house after paying 500K, spend another 2mil on the new house and landscaping insanity so they have 2.5mil into something they can not sell for even 1/2 after their recent divorce. They had the money to do what they wanted. Does not matter if it is worth it to others, it was worth it to them. That is how I see this T/A. Whether the car has been fluffed or not, no one is disputing the 14 miles shown. Maybe that is all they cared about owning (a virtual new car). This sale is a unicorn situation. It made one person happy that had the funds to get it.
