1991 z28 all orginal?

I was just looking around on auto trader to kill time and came across this ad. It says its a "RARE BARRETT - JACKSON TYPE CONDITION............................... .....ALL ORIGINAL, 1-OWNER" Yet looking at the spoiler on the back it doesn't seem original to me. Is this real and just a special limited edition model that I'm not aware of, or is it just advertised wrong?

Other then the rear wing it all looks correct original. It looks like a very nice Z.

Barrett - Jackson type condition? What's that? Unless it's got some sort of documentation that states that, his comment still means nothing more than what he thinks it's like . Trying to mooch on someone else's reputation?

Doubt it's ALL original with a spoiler like that. It still looks like a nice ride though.

Re: 1991 z28 all orginal?

Ever wonder what goes through the boy-racers mind right before he drills holes through the decklid of a car like this? He must have REALLY been into that long grain spoiler. Between the spoiler, brackets for missing head light covers, and what looks to be a cup holder screwed to the side of the console, at least one previous owner didn't give a damn about originality. It's probably a really nice car, but those flaws really take away from the total package.

It looks like the car is in nice shape. I just couldn't believe that they claimed it to be all original. It's a shame how people try to pass stuff off as what it is not.
