Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
[ QUOTE ]
I wandered about JenJac's cars. If you look at there before pictures on cars being restored they seem to add a lot of options to them and not keep them as born.  However, there stuff looks very clean and fully restored all be it maybe not fully correct.  [/ QUOTE ] Jen Jacs like many other restorers and business people do the work according to the customers specifications. The guy paying the bills controls the technique, method and type of restoration performed. As Stefano stated, his ethics and business practices are excellent.

Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
You just gotta love the way this guy never directly answers the question and dances all aroung basically insinuating the car not to be a recreation.
 "Q: Wonderful restoration! No mention in your listing as to documentation? Is the car real or a recreation? Born-with drivetrain? Please send any other info pertaining to this car's legitamacy, etc. Thanks! P.S. I am a serious collector (no tire kicker). I would probably want to inspect the car, where is it located? Oct-29-08 A: She is absolutely correct and all numbers, both castings & dates are dead on right. the car speaks for itself and is priced right considering. With documentation she would bring way over $250k. You must decide on whether you're buing the car for what it is or are you buying paperwork? Unfortunately many great cars, legit cars, have not retained paper work. If only people would have had the forsight of what saving paper work would do for the value. Inspections are welcome."

Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
This is what sucks about this hobby..the parsing of words...survivor [as discussed elsewhere]matching numbers..correct..original..'real deal' all BS..
Now the most reassuring phrase is 'born with' I guess there is no wiggle room on that term...except when it is a flat out lie. Now for me, a blue collar, dirt under my finger nails kinda guy..I have to use the word 'Provenance' WTF..I just want to do a freakin' burnout ..not speak French...

Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
The guy that has the car for sale says jenjacs did not do the resto. That is according to a post on the TC site anyway.

Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
He said that jenjacs did not do the resto but did have the car and did do some detailing work to the car... the statements are misleading at best...

Re: 1969 z28 crossram jl8 black
That's funny, when I talked to him, I told him that I was not interested in buying the car but was interested in his other parts he was going to sell. I did ask him who did the restoration and he told me the car came from Georgia and Joey W. did the restoration. This car has changed hands a couple times before the current owner.
