Anyone familiar with RK Motors in Charlotte, NC? I'm trying to sell my high-end 68 Camaro convertible and I'm considering putting it on consignment at RK. They've been good to work with thus far, but it's another story to send my 6 figure car to them without more research.
Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks...I thought that might be a good idea as well. I have a few DSE parts on my car so I don't feel too bad about taking up a couple minutes of their time.

If you learn anything, I personally would appreciate if you post back here. My family has a car in NC that we are also considering consignment on, and I'm looking for referrals for a trustworthy place to handle it.

Thanx!

Is it a pro touring car or a numbered car?

They look like Procar Rally, minus the headrest.

thanks for the comments...
They are the Rally seats minus the headrests and M&M Interiors (Alabama) did a great job covering the front and rear seats
I purchased the motor and transmission from Street and Performance and it was mostly a complete setup when shipped. Those are Spectre Performance filters.
Here are 2 more pics...1 is a little better engine shot and the other is Chip Foose signing and drawing in the glovebox.

Make sure everything works on the car before you drop it off. Have them inspect it before you release it to them and take care of any issues yourself or pay their shop rate to fix. They do a great job of marketing and are moving a fair amount of cars. Lots are going overseas.

They will put it in their showroom and there are no test drives unless the person is very serious in buying and they get your permission first.

You may see a yellow 69 there soon.

That's interesting, they have another one there almost identical to yours. Even the same intake, LOL.

I like yours better, by the way.

thanks for the nice comment on my car. I've seen the other car at a GoodGuys event and they are similar. The other car is really nice but I went a slightly different direction by not going as modern with a lot of the detail, particularly with the interior. My goal from the beginning was modern performance with more of a classic look.
