You would be surprised at the things Idiots do to cars. They will try
to counterfeit GTA's, IROC's, and 92 RS cars. Hell if I like the way one
looks, even if it started life as a base model Ill buy it. If it
happens to have GTA emblems or IROC decals(or painted lettering) on the
doors, Ill remove it. Then sell it for what it is after I'm tired of it.
Ill get pretty much what it would as if it were a GTA or IROC, because I
will make it clean, and look good.
A buddy of mine has a 1987 Monty Carlo LS. I sold him my 1988 Monty
Carlo SS parts car (for next to nothing). The LS was hit across the nose,
and it's getting the frame from under a 87 Cutlass Classic. Someone asked
me once Will the SS parts make it a real SS? I told them "Not really, nor
will it ever be claimed to be a SS". Just a cool looking car saved from
death.

Oh I know, counterfieting GTAs is fairly common (saw a fake in a junker a
couple of months back). At least those cars are somewhat special, they're
selling points that would command more money (even if only slightly). Who
would go out of their way to counterfiet (or purchase for that matter) an
'86 Camaro? Would anyone search out that one special car with a bigger blind
spot than the rest?
