Interesting that a rear seat speaker is listed, but a radio is not.

Wonder how much he really hopes to get for these docs, as without the car, they are really nothing more than a conversation piece.

If you owned the car, it would be worth his $10K asking price. No way to really document an L-89 without the papers. I'm sure lots of people searching for that VIN.

My Olds is an early 1969 model (Oct '68) and also lists head restraints on the B-O-S. Remember, these were federally mandated in 1969 model autos along with the locking steering column.
Cool docs here by the way!

N538502 would have been final-assembled on or about November 7, 1968. Must have had to hustle that T1106JJ engine down there.

I'm a doubter on those docs. Maybe they are real, but maybe not.
If the car turns up, I'm more of a doubter.....

Good reason to doubt those docs.

Fake docs almost always use one of three addresses:

1. The real 1969 address of a person who has recently passed, preferably someone without children.
2. A fake addres where there has never been a house.
3. A now commercial address (or at least close to a commercial concern) so that folks will simply assume the old houses were torn down and the strip mall, or whatever, is now in its place.
4. Some combination of the above.

There is currently no 2407 Mulberry Ln. Where that address would be is an apt. complex built in ..... 1969. They use "Apt. A, Apt. B, Apt. C" designations for each address.

So, is it possible that David Cothron lived in a house at 2407 Mulberry Ln. and RIGHT AFTER this paperwork was executed in Nov. 1968, they bought his house, tore it down (along with any others in the neighborhood) and built the Apts. by 1969?
Sure it is. It is also possible that monkeys fly out of my butt next time I bend over to work on one of the cars. I will stop short of stating that I know 100% for certain these are fake docs. It would be easy enough for someone to look at county land records for 1968 and see if there really was a 2407 Mulberry Lane. I can tell you that if there was, it wasn't titled to anyone named Cothron. Still, Mr. Cothron could have been a renter, so that isn't proof. However, if there wasn't even a home at that address, pretty strong evidence that the docs are fake.

Remember the Edward O'Donnell completely faked Black JL8, L89 car in Florida? I mean complete, all the way from the car itself which started life as a LB plain jane car and became a documented L89, JL8 car complete with docs? They went to great pains to find a recently deceased person (Kenny) with no children for all the paperwork. What they didn't count on was Kenneth's estate being probated. I called the executrix of the estate who had known Kenneth his whole life, and she told me he never even owned a Camaro.
