I would much more rather have the Dusk Blue care that Chuck has for sale in the classified section.

This place is mainly a consignment house. I went and looked at their rating by the bbb, and its here and looks to be A+.

http://www.bbb.org/chicago/business-revi...ake-il-51000318

I think they have close to 300 cars on site, and move a lot of cars each year. I like they have a <span style="text-decoration: underline">free</span> forsale corral for people once a year, where you can look at cars to sell out in a nice shaded area, almost like a park setting. I got rid of a 64 vette there one year, bought my 9K mile 67 hemi gtx there with galen paperwork. Cost me nothing to do those transactions with private owners. I got my survivor 20K mile mr norms challenger r/t through one of the guys that works there. No issues with any of my cars or transactions.

I agree now, looks like the camaro is not worth the money, and I don't like hearing about the fake LS6 convert experience. It is sad these places spew what the consigner likely tells them. <span style="text-decoration: underline">No excuse for that</span>.

But there is still some goodness related to volocars. BIG dollar cars need inspection by experts.

I myself looked at this black 70 caddy recently, and if I get it, I plan to put bucket seats in it with console and add 67 hiding headlights on it, as it is so so rust free. If it was not volo, I would not get opportunities like this, thus I have to defend them a bit:

If you know what you are looking at there are some good deals at Volo. The one I remember most was the red 1967 Shelby convertible that was there every one thought it was fake. I wish I would have bought it at I believe 70k. I have sold 3 Z28 a 70 LS5 Chevelle and a couple other cars there over the years. You just cant believe what you read you have to know what you are looking at.
I did see that 69 L78 but there was so much repop on it there was no way to tell real or not.

When the brothers Greg &amp; Bill ran it,it wasn't the best.But when the 2 sons took it over,it got a lot worse in my book.
One incident:
I inspected a car with a friend there recently,and was told they had a lot of the factory paperwork on it too.They wanted us to put down a non refundable deposit and then would contact the owner about getting the BS,POP &amp; DI..We waited in the office for a solid 60 minutes as we wanted to see the paperwork first before the deposit was given.I could tell they were screwing us around &amp; hoping we'd leave after we called their bluff.1 hour later the son came in and admitted he lied.This after we asked for the car owners name to confirm he had it.Too many empty promise situations like this or bending the facts for me to ever want to go back.
