Neat address for an L89 race car.Maybe he bought the house just for the address?

That paperwork looks familiar, http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Cool address for a Drag Racer.
The car is even cooler. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

I checked old real estate records, and that street was not completed until 1971. Must be a fake. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[427king]

Its on the title as well as the POP and thats an original document for certain . Documents are 4/70 dated. Thanks for checking that info for me though.

H-3 highway here in Hawaii was completed in 1998, Took 30 years to build so that places it starting back in 68 http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif $2Bil later though http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I verified thru the original owners wife also that the address on the pop is the one he both grew up at and the address that was on the POP. I sincerely like being back on this site,what i dont apprteciate is someone making a statement with a smiley face regarding something they dont know anything about,and not based on any fact. I dont think the word "fake" should be used casually and without any merit.

I totally agree. It really upsets me when some people are so quick to state as a matter of fact that a car, a pop, a build sheet, a cowl tag is a fake with out offering one bit of corroborating evidence. As if they are the finial authority on the matter. Especially where cowl tags are concerned. When asked to qualify why they think it's a fake the response is always the same. "I can't say because then the guys making the fake cowl tag would know". That is pure BS. I've always thought that half the people that say a certain cowl tag is fake wouldn't know a fake cowl tag if they saw one. I had a guy a few years back on another site state as a matter of fact and with no corroborating evidence that a #'s matching 66 427 Vette I had for sell was a fake. He was real cocky about it until I drug his azz into court for diminished value. Sorry but that is one subject that really gets under my skin. Some people just need to put a sock in it.

TXSS your way off base as to why people don't disclose the differences between real and fake. The reasons are real and necessary in my opinion. I find this site extremely helpful in all aspects hobby. I always share what knowledge I feel appropriate, but you can go too far and actually help the builders of bogus cars. That where I draw the line.

Don't bad mouth the good, knowledgeable enthusiast on this site. If you want to know the differences take a look at a good one very closely and compare it to a fake. If you still can't figure it out PM me. Both type of tags have been posted.

Regarding the POP, I agree that was an unnecessary comment and I think the poster owes Chuck an apology.

Wow, I sure thought he was being sarcastic but I guess others missed the http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

"Don't bad mouth the good, knowledgeable enthusiast on this site"

Exactly who did I bad mouth?

I believe if you re-read my post you will see that I said nothing derogatory or made any negative reference to Unreal, this site or anyone on it. I said "some people" I did not say some people on this site. There's a big difference. My statement was in general terms regarding "some people" on the internet. I know the difference between a real cowl tag and a fake one. My point is I've seen a number of cowl tags, pop's, etc pronounced as Fake when they are not. But that's easy to do when a person can hide behind a screen name on the internet. As I said you may want to re-read my post before you call me down for doing something I did not do. People just need to think before they speak. " I don't think the word "fake" should be used casually " Just like I don't think the word liar or thief should be used casually.

I've said it before and I'll say it again this is the number one site on the internet for car enthusiast...bar none.

The car and it's paperwork are very real. Trust me, I transported the car and was one of the first persons to see the POP and Title last week after the sale. It's most likely the lowest mile original owner L89 Camaro that I know of. I agree someone owes Chuck an apology here.

Chuck,
I meant that a a joke....didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. I thought a smiley face was a dead givaway that I was making a lame attempt to be funny. Maybe next time, I'll insert "Charley Sucks!" NO WAIT, He's apparantly the only one who knew I was joking.

I thought you posted the POP because it was ironic. I sincerely appologize.

As for keeping my day job.....thanks for the advice. I think I will.

Does this mean no one can joke on this site anymore?

[1railman]

You are a class act.
I do however feel joking about a car's pedigree in most cases not a good idea. Kinda like not making fun about "your momma" or messing with someones food.
I have owned some of the most commonly faked cars and know from experience how most people look at real one, as though "oh there's another fake". Make all the fun you want about my gut, garage, my comb over, my driving skills, but please not my L88. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/headbang.gif

[Unreal]

Just out of curiosity, what is it about that cropped pic that would prove or disprove any pedigree? I don't remember seeing any engine codes, or original owner's name, etc. Just a pretty cool address. How could making a joke(lame as it might have been) about the address call into question the pedigree of the car?

I guess I'm pretty nieve when it comes to paperwork. Maybe someone will enlighten me.

railman, you actually have a combover??? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

Gentlemen; I am a lurker, I visit your board every day, its one of the best. I love these cars as much as you do and currently own 6 assorted GM/FORD/CHRY muscle cars. In reviewing all these posts though, a tone of fanatasism seems to flowing thru,I hear it in TXSS and 1RAILMAN- and yes, you are entitled to your opinions, and I would support your right to say so, However, I am just concerned when you compare your cars pedigree, a piece of machined steel, albeit magnificent, to a wife, mother or child- living, breathing humans, that we might, just might be getting a little, just a little, wraped around the axle of life-you can not put the two in the same contex. Just my 02.cents.-thanks http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif

I don't see any of what you are talking about in this thread. But Charley does suck.
