The alleged window sticker has at least 20 errors starting with the base MSRP for an 8 cylinder convert. It is missing rally wheels; Z22 'equipment' is incorrectly spelled. The alleged CBC lists XT wheels painted white.

No one takes pops seriously these days.

It was at Mecum Indy 2018; did not make reserve. They need to address this just as Barrett-Jackson does.

Are those 8” wheels? And maybe it’s the camera angle, but those seats look cockeyed to these old eyes.

Perhaps it is the incorrect head rests.

Norwood car, correct? Is the chassis broadcast copy real? I thought body broadcast sheets from Norwood were rare, and chassis broadcast sheets from Norwood virtually non-existent?

There are a few Norwood CBCs out there. Mostly BBCs, even from Van Nuys cars.

They likely started with a copy of real one. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing...

20! Errors? Man that's crazy. Good thing that there's guys like you who can spot a fake from a mile away.

Window stickers are easy as there are plenty out there to study.

Not so with Broadcast Copies. Kurt is Da Man on those.
