Be careful with that dealer. It would be best to personally inspect and drive any vehicle before you buy it from them. "Dr. Dave" has screwed over many.

Very nice car.. But as Mopar Steve indicated BE CAREFUL WITH THIS DEALER!!! I have heard thru the grapevine that he has been sued over cars he sold and advertised as "numbers matching" when the new owner's found out that they were not or re-stamps.. Suprisingly "Dr. Dave" has won these court cases and I heard that the particular Judge that heard the cases stated it was ok to indicate "numbers matching" in an ad. He ruled that "Dr. Dave" would be at fault if it was stated "vin matching" in the ad.. I realy do not know what difference this makes in an ad I think it is all the same. I am just relaying what I heard. I guess "Dr. Dave" is an actual retired Dr. from the PA area that buys and sells musclecars as a "hobby."

That's correct!

A friend of mine went down there to look at the cars and he relayed the same thing everyone on other sites have said. They only look good in the pictures.

The Dr. sold a soldier in Iraq his dream car. If I remember correctly, it was a GTO? The car was advertised as a perfect restoration. He bought the car sight unseen. Upon returning home, He found the car was NOWHERE near perfect.

This guy is a real crook. He's only in it for the money.

For the record, I have no affiliation with this "Dr. Dave".

Well, the guys at Team Chevelle are having a discussion about the car and it ain't looking too good for the car.I just remembered Tim looking for that color and engine and thought he may be still looking.

I just can't believe that the engine still has it's original paint after looking at the photos.

There is NO WAY that this Chevelle has the original engine paint on it as stated in the ad. It looks way too clean and good for being 39 years old!! I also find it hard to believe that someone would be selling a low mileage, all original, numbers matching, L78 68 Chevelle for $48,000. HEY, I WAS BORN AT NIGHT BUT NOT LAST NIGHT!!! Cut the BS already!!
