I throw the BS flag. If this car was ordered thorough a Sacramento dealership and "was in CA it's entire life up to 2007", then:
Why are there "original" '67 UTAH license plates?
And where is the smog pump that was manditory for '67 cars ordered for CA? I see perhaps the correct chrome upper black painted lower air cleaner with snorkel. I see the smog pump listed in the window sticker.
How come this car was "ordered new" in So Cal but delivered to Nor Cal?
Another cool option I see is cruise control.

Best looking 67 I've seen. If all I would need is to change the lug nuts I could live with it.
It's not uncommon to have low rated guys biding on cars. They just do not use eBay much. I would contact them by phone though to make sure they know "you win, then you pay"!

The bidding looks like ringers since they have either "0" feedback or 15 transactions, but have only been registered on ebay for 30 days.
Plus on the first auction, who bids up a car to $37K and then just lets it go instead of buying it now for another $4K. Seems fishy to me.
I really like the car but I'd say in this market anything over $25K is a camaro owner thinking he got the deal of a lifetime. As noted, the whole CA owned with the Utah plates is just weird! Plus who spends $57K on a resto and then doesn't mention a word about what was done to it. A 62K mileage CA car should need that much work!
