Does he have a name? Or is he just a well known cloner?

Christi Lee said it had the correct CE block in it when the car was featured, before it went over the block.

Prior to last week,it sold for 88K in 2015 at B-J Scottsdale as an LS-6 too.
Perpetuate a lie long enough and it soon becomes acceptable?

Heard Jerry M. certified it,but was that as a real original LS-6 or just as an 1970 Chevelle Super Sport?

clearly, the new owner was not interested in doing any form of Research before buying this car as its apparent from this post., it's not a CIA Secret that this car is a clone. Makes ya wonder when are buyers going to stop being lazy and do an ounce of due diligence??

I do hate these scumbags who are passing these cars off as real but come on people.... Smart enough to have made such a good living to afford a $125K car but too Stupid to make some calls

It's just sad we have dishonest people cloning these cars. I've been collecting petroleum items for 30+ years and the amount of fake signs being produced is unreal and out of control. It almost takes the fun out of the hobby.

Previous seller also knew it was a fake so he is also guilty.

Auction listing states "This 1970 Chevelle SS came from the factory with the LS6 engine option". Should be an easy deal to unwind if the buyer so chose ...?
