Saleroom Addendum
Please note that the certificate of authenticity issued by Jerry MacNeish of Camaro Hi-Performance Inc. confirms that this vehicle is an original L78 model, but does not attest to the authenticity or originality of components or stampings. The certificate of authenticity, as well as Mr. MacNeish’s detailed inspection report, accompanies the sale and can be viewed in The Archives or by contacting a specialist. When the consignor purchased the vehicle from Sherman Gerlach, Mr. Gerlach provided a notarized affidavit attesting that the vehicle retains its matching-numbers engine. That affidavit is also available for review. Please also note that copies of the period timing cards accompany the sale, not originals as stated in the catalogue.
