The sad part is that there's a sucker born every minute, and someone will likely be paying way too much for what appears to be a fairly nice car.

I once new a guy back in the day who claimed his 71 Chevelle SS had a factory installed 496 CID LS7. When I asked him why my magnet would stick to his heads, I explained that his had the "special" iron LS7 heads. Nothing as ridiculous and pathetic as a pathological liar.

Or the guy I ran into years ago with an 89 Trans am factory installed with the experimental LT1.

I have to think that if he really did have that particular corvette, you would think he's pick a "classier venue" to advertise it than Craig's List.

Maybe HE was the stoopid one and swallowed the hook from the seller when he bought it. His reply about paperwork makes me wonder what he bought.

Stoopid would change a car like that anyway, personal preference be dammed.
