Maybe some of these sellers need to sell whatever they are smokin on e-bay, they would prolly get more money.

C'mon, 50 bucks for an "original" "repainted" oil cap........
25 bucks for a "rare" alternator bolt.........
And the ever popular "XX Original numbers matching SS", with a 117 VIN.....

Jees.......you gotta be kidding. I know some people might be building correct cars, but really....sheeeshhh......

Oh and don't forget the usual catch words...."Rare, Yenko, COPO, and my all time favorite L-79".....

Okay, off my box....I feel better.......:D

I hear ya....the same check writers that build a 150K Nova...:eek:

I am sure most car guys look at that stuff and go pfffttt.......

I did write a guy yesterday who was selling a "True" 118 car. He showed the cowl tag as a 115 or 117........told him he looked like a fool to those who know cars, but then he'll prolly fool some "check writer" and sell it, and also the guy who had 118 on the cowl tag and 117 in the door sill, played like he didn't know how it 'came like that from the factory"......ummm...riiiigghhtt.

Just rubs me the wrong way, for those who might be looking for a part to complete their build, can't find it aftermarket, and then there is some tard holding onto the part that neither appreciates it, or cares less he is parting out a good car....

T,You can have a original numbers matching SS with a 117 Vin, that is if its a original 6 Cylinder SS. ' 65-'67 Nova SS with the 6 cylinder engine had the 117 vin.
