I was totally embarrassed watching that ZL1 auction. I know some of you love this Craig Jackson guy but I have always thought of him as a shiesty crooked car salesman. Believe me I know these guys when I see them. Having spent 10 years in a car dealership I know the type. He kept saying "this car has great history!" I laughed out loud when I heard that. The announcers were saying this is the buy of the auction and welcome to 2009 when a ZL1 only brings in the $200's, not knowing the bad stigma this car has. I bet Craig put his foot in his big mouth because he was probably telling Holub "yeah, don't worry, the car will bring a million!" as he stood there in his plaid suit coat and shiny pinky ring.

I feel sorry for the buyer. He looked so proud and I don't think he has a clue... He got sucked in by the rhetoric on the stage...

he got his fifteen...really about 6...minutes of fame on TV..!! it seemed like the buyer jumped into the bidding at the end...I wonder if he just figured it must be such a great deal because the auctioneers were saying so.....ayayay.....

IMO, the buy of the lot was the P/L racecar, but the timing on the stage could not have been worse, following three redodies, all offered by the same seller.

The selling of the ZL-1 was a joke.

Why the COPO connection/ Cunneen would ever give the car his seal of approval based on the VIN TAG only will always baffle me ???

I believe I heard that Ed Cunneen revoked and disclaimed all certifications. He is no longer involved in certifications.

Jackson (Craig) and Stevie Wonder seem to be a matched pair.
