Re: 67 L79 tanker to be sold at BJ

any time a car like this that only 2 were ever made, if that, pops up as a third one in exsistance out of nowhere, a gigantic red flag should be raised. if this third car is declaired to be real, guess what? you will probably find the other 15 to 20 of these cars that no one ever knew about poping up at these "special events". i know someone that has a big tank for sale. its at every big show. i would be willing to bet that who ever buys this will put it in "real tanker" that was missing the tank. BS!

B-J is well aware of the claims made in this initial write up of the car, the fact it was burned extensively and in contact with the owner at this time regarding the representation. At this point they have a write up an owner sent them and probably a few pictures of the car; I suspect the final description will be quite different from the initial claim. I think B-J does a better job of reviewing these owner claims than any of the other auction houses.

Read the statements now, appears it has been changed and I suspect B-J inspection may yield more changes.

This day in age with internet, they'd be foolish to not listen, hard to dispute prior recent history. Their reputation and future revenue would be more seriously damaged than this one car if the evidence came forward at time of sale, or shortly after wards.

Only thing open now is the owner that wasn't honest to begin with...

Can hardly wait for his next project, oops, here it is...

I don't know how there can be so many people that gullible to fall for a made up car.

Right Roy, I love the description about how it was "upgraded with a 36 1/2 gallon gas tank". Guess it was upgraded for long freeway trips?

I don't see any mention of a salvage title either. Maybe it has been cleansed as well!
