Default Barnfind Chevelle......real?

I saw this on Barnfinds.com and it was interesting that they questioned the authenticity in the article they put together. In looking at the ad, it would appear to be legit, anyone have any thoughts on this one?

Yea...it's rough!

Ralph Nader was the reason they never sold this car brand new.
All those poor cows being sucked in as it flew by and nothing left of em but their tags.

Must be Green SS's for sale in PA day! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

The Chevelle must have a cylinder off behind the hood hinge - out where the original, non fiberglass cow is located!

PA guys put this on their race cars...

The functional steel cow alone is worth the asking price. It's like getting a 71 SS454 Chevelle for free.

Really? The car is at nearly 10K with the reserve not met.

Purchased at Reedman Chevy. Shame it's not a 4 speed car. Still a nice car if someone wants to restore her.

I like seeing a popular performance dealership near from where I'm from. Little did I know that down the street from Sesame Place a dealership was selling this cool stuff 12+ years before.

Been watching this one for a few days. The bidding ended almost a few hours ago and listed as &quot;sold&quot; for $13,500.
