Reply of the thread right there!, especially if the original owner or Brad (the restorer) or whoever else has a stake in the car seems to want 200k or better for this machine. For such a special car there should have been a lot of fanfare, ......i.e. Polaroid and Kodak Instamatic with FlashCube pics somewhere. Bows ribbons, champagne, hot dogs etc......LOL. But at the very least a sale contract with THAT color listed on it beside special paint. We, as hobbyists, want to believe in this Omega, but at 200k anyone would be a fool to pay that without it being in STONE that it came that color from the factory

If it were mine, with this cloud of doubt around it, I would have taken the 160k it bid to and ran to the bank </div></div>



really???????? I had over 200 early Camaros in the 80's and 90's... I have very very few pics of any of them... that was not the digital age.....Did you expect a ticker tape parade back then when the car was delivered???? How about a visit from the Pope ?? If someone orders a special color Camaro in 2015 how much fanfare would there be???


I find it hard to believe the selling dealer would fabricate such a story and put it in writing. </div></div>


I was being facetious, but sheepishly admit I took hundreds of pics of my 78 Camaro with an anemic 305, because it was my first new car I bought and paid for on my own

Just saying if there was an order or sale contract from when the car was purchased that said what color the special paint was, everyone would shut up, its the 150k question
