Default 70 Chevelle SS FAKE build sheet

Check out the build sheet for this car on Ebay.
Those who know will agree, I think.

If it's fake, that's scary.....someone sure has the font and general appearance pretty damn close

Bill,
I'm not familiar with build sheets from that time frame. Are the RPOs always listed alphabetically?

It is a bit scary how close the fonts are, but several things jump out at me saying it's a fake made by someone that doesn't know certain things.

It sure is mighty sporting of them to indicate "Not Original Motor" after going to the trouble of producing a bogus build sheet.
What's half honest worth?

Well, I knew this was going to happen , They are getting better and better, the aging, the fonts as RixLS6 says is scary ,un-believable how accurate it is.Real quickly I found a few mistakes, that indicate it's a fake too but with minor changes to this sheet, I don't know how you could tell the difference between this and a real one !As RixLS6 did too, guys I wouldn't be too forthcoming on telling the website what's wrong with this sheet.I'm sad to say that were are going to be flooded with "Documented" cars real soon !!
