Soon as someone posts the VIN we will know.

If it is the real McCoy they can begin negotiating with Jenkins family. Without the original paperwork it is just another old race car.

If the VIn is known, why would they need to negotiate with the Jenkins family ?
When I bought my ZL-1, I did not have to negotiate with the original owner or anyone because the VIN was known also. .... (although I did later get a bunch of paperwork on the car, but never found the actual original owner)

The Jenkins VIN is known only because of the paperwork. The Jenkins family may still have that info. Would you trust copies?

ZL1s were known because a Chevy executive retained the VIN list and released the info.
