Post 68 Camaro...

Nice looking car...but an awful lot of money.

The write up mentions adding rect. port heads to the engine. Looks like this was a 325hp car from the factory. Will the rect. port heads work with the pistons in 325hp motor??

I'm quite certain the whole engine was modified and the pistons changed to work with the heads.
As for price, those distractions with the stripper heels must cost a LOT to rent...

I doubt that outfit has ever sold a classic car on ebay. Almost all their feedback is for calendars. A few later model cars or trucks.

They way over price them on purpose, hoping someone will contact them and do a sale outside of ebay without an inspection. That way when the buyer sees how bad the car is, they can't leave negative feedback.

Lots of horror stories of cars they sold that were not as represented. I remember one over on Team Camaro where there was bondo 3 inches thick in one of the quarters or doors.

And that crap continues, unabated, to this day.



I got screwed three times on ebay after having cars shipped to me. Then I bought 2 more, which I pulled a trailer from MN to Springfield MO once and east of Knoxville, TN another time to evaluate them in person and came home with an empty trailer both times...yes, I am a slow learner...



My current Camaro was on ebay, but close enough to go see and buy directly. My '66 SS came from Pensacola, FL via an ebay purchase and was a MESS, but relatively, cheap enough to take a chance on. My '70 SS was another local seller and I knew it was a train wreck, but it is Canadian built and worth restoring.

This car was owned by a member here. What a beauty it appears to be!

LOVE the "Stance" with those tires/wheels!
Are those Pro-Tracs on it? L60-15 on rear you guys think? (275-60-15 metric)
