Too good not to share
So I posted this on the C3 forum, but it is too good not to share with ya'll
A famous quote, by a famous person, went something like
“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”
Note the attached photo of a 1970 Corvette engine, for a ZR1 convertible, currently listed on ebay
By the way, the author of that quote... Adolf Hitler

Not having a lot of experience with C3’s, what is the issue other than it’s not an LT1?

However, Stevie Wonder could have done a better job stamping (re-stamping) that engine. IT turns out the car is well known as an original 350 hp car that has been "massaged" a bit.

“Massaged”, lol.
I’ve seen a lot of crappy factory stamping on other Makes, just wasn’t sure about this one. He does spend a lot of time in the description attempting to distance himself from the vehicle’s pedigree. Caveat emptor!

You know, if these people could redirect their talents, they might be something other than a crook. And a stupid crook to boot! Wow, that is bad!
