Hey guys,
While I still enjoy it very much, my financial situation is having me starting to consider selling my beauty. I know that now is NOT the time to sell. My question is, without documents, is it right to advertise my '70 as a true SS? When I bought it the guy sweared that it was a real one, but I knew then that without documents it is not proven. The car came with all the right ss gear, round gauges, clear lense park lights, boxed rear control arms, sway bars, no holes under rockers for malibu modlings, ect ect... It has a date correct LS-5 but not #s match. Was originaly an auto now has a M22. The car is in beautiful shape, no rust or patches, complete frame off resto, can't see anywhere that seems to have significant bondo. I will only sell it if I can get a decent chunk of my investment back, if the market will only give me 15 to 18k I'll keep it(paid 30k + 5k in changing it to what I wanted). These cars do sell for more up here in canada as they are far less common. For 25k it would go.
Sorry to go on for so long... my question is, is it right to advertise the car as a true SS? Or should I use the dreaded words "clone" or "tribute" which would definitely hurt the responses. I do believe it to be a real one... but who knows!
Thanks guys
