Re: chevelle build sheets
 
Come on guys a build sheet a COPO does not make! There is little harm in a reproduction build sheet. Mr Clemens bares no blame here he's just providing a service. Anyone thats been around the cars for any amount of time can spot a fake so a build sheets not going to prove much to me? If your paying high dollar for a car you better have the complete provenance! Its nice to have copies to display. I keep my build sheet locked in a fireproof safe. I don't have a repro but it would be nice to display one!

There's quite a bit of harm in reproduction documentation,because after the car passes through a few owners it becomes real documentation.How would you feel if that sheet in your vault turned out to be made by Mr Clemens years ago?I have no problem with repop window stickers(like the one's you get with PHS packet) but when you start massaging patina into sheets with mystery oil and a curling iron it becomes an attempt to aid and abed fraud.
