JM's reports are not perfect, but they have filled a void in the market for close to 20 years. With the lack of factory paperwork, they document what the car is and isn't. For lots of buyers, they shed a lot of light on the car.
My biggest complaint about JM's appraisal is the silly certificate. So many sellers only show it and it only says that is certain model. The other pages are conveniently forgotten.

My posting was specific. I have a very good friend of mine here on the fourm with a 69 Z28 that he was selling. In 2009 JM inspected the car and basically called it a barn find gem. Just a few weeks ago Matt decided to sell the car and the new buyer called JM to ask again what his opinion was on the car and JM told him it was a rust bucket and killed the sale 2021. Matt being a survivor collector guy having some of the best 69 Z28s including this one mentioned and Yenkos in the country was blown away. This is why I started this thread not to bash but just get a better idea of who JM really is.

I owned the car in question for several years then sold it to Matt. The only rust I remember was a little in the front fender behind the tire and a small spot on the passenger quarter where the rear window leaked. Sold in Ohio, I think the car is in excellent shape since it was stored away after the gas crisis in the early seventies. Floorboards were rust free.

We being originally from Ohio we would call that a cream puff Pretty sure anyone that lives East of the Mississippi, especially the Northern half probably thinks the same way.

Only the desert rats from the South West would call that a rust bucket.

Sounds like a pretty nice car to me.
