I read that article yesterday -- cool stuff.
I, too, am skeptical about the "originality" of the one that was found 30 years ago in a crate. Without a paper trail, or some documentation of the find, it's a tough sell at "found it in a crate" -pricing. Looks like a cool example nonetheless.
If anyone is into Camaros, a few years back an original '85 Iroc was discovered in a shipping container. I think it had something like 5 (five) original miles and hadn't been PDI'd by a dealer yet. Everthing was still covered in plastic, and except for being a 25 year old car, it was brand new. Internet forums were ablaze with the find, and the owner took a video of it being taken out of the container and it being discovered for the first time in decades. Cool stuff...it's still out there on Youtube I think.
