Re: chevelle build sheets
Bill - having had the opportunity to speak with you in Scottsdale this January I appreciate what you are saying. But there are a couple of things that concern me with Mr. Clemens posting. There is a big difference between a repro part for a car such as an exhaust manifold or a repro car brochure and a buildsheet which may be misrepresented or mistaken for a real one and add significant value to a car. Your statement "I AM NOT THE ONE ALTERING THE CAR OR MISREPRESENTING THE CAR." is merely turning a blind eye to the rampant proliferation of fake and misrepresented cars. You may not intend for the item to be misused, but more often than not they do NOT end up being used to just "COMPLEMENT A RESTORATION".
I have been fortunate so far to have never been burned by fake docs (altho I've seen plenty), but I have seen many decent folks get burned and it saddens me. I believe (my opinion) that it is dangerous to put repro buildsheets in the same category as reproduction parts for a restoration. I suppose its your right to sell them, but don't delude yourself into thinking that they will be used for honest purposes most of the time.
And finally, you come across quite threatening with a statement like this..."IF OTHER HAVE REMARKS THEY WILL POST, PLEASE BE WELL INFORMED ON WHAT YOU SAY BEFORE YOU PUT IT IN WRITING." Maybe you don't frequent these forums much, but the primary purpose is to have people comment on your postings. You may not agree, like, or support the responses, but that is how it works.
