That would be a great car to get and it comes with known history.

This is the car from Toledo that was sold to this guy in Richmond almost a year ago. The other owner was Mike Zimmerman. The car is crusty There is a photo of it at used car lot from years ago with cool hubcaps. Mike sold the car between 65-70 K. He called me and we talked prior to the sale

I'd probably make some room in the garage for that....

Woj 01-10-2016 02:32 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Just heard back from the seller, the car is tentatively sold.

That's a MD car that Skip Lecates used to own. It was recently discussed on the site.

Mr70 01-10-2016 05:27 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Where on this site was this car discussed before?
I'm aware of the red deuce and orange Z/28 Skip found,but not this COPO Camaro.

Here's the Z.. http://www.hotrod.com/cars/barn-find...vy-camaro-z28/

Thanks..

COPO CARTEL...When did you see the car last to know it's crusty or how crusty it is?

COPO CARTEL 01-10-2016 06:25 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Mark Bulaw here on the site visually inspected the car in the last 2-3 years....Skip sold the car to Mike Zimmerman about 11-15 years ago ...the car was in Hemmings I think back then

69RSCOPO 01-10-2016 07:32 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
yes I know all about the history of the car..The car is actually in extremely good shape to have been sitting since the 70's. There is no rust at all except for two little surface spots.

Salvatore 01-10-2016 07:37 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Reasto in Day-2, drag racing trim I hope!

Charley Lillard 01-10-2016 07:40 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
So in one post it is &quot;crusty&quot; but in another post no rust at all except two little surface spots ?

69RSCOPO 01-10-2016 08:00 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
I never said the car is crusty. I was just asking how he knew it was crusty being he never seen the car. Yes the car has been sitting since the 70's and yes the car needs a full resto..I never said it didn't, but this car is incredible shape to have not been on the road is so long. Hopefully Skip can put a little insight into this. I'm not trying to be argumentative I just hate to see people down the car when they have not seen it, nor do they know the shape of it. It really is a great car to start with compared to some cars that have been outside in the elements for 20+ years..I'm really starting to consider on just keeping it being it needs no metal replacement what so ever.

Charley Lillard 01-10-2016 08:11 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
I know you didn't say it was crusty, CopoCartel said it. We have two people giving to me what sounds like two very different opinions...

There you go...Use your judgement..After restoring several mustangs, I say this car is in extremely good shape...As well as a great car to start with

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
I know Skip had an orange COPO a while back. Craigslist ad is gone; maybe car is too. Lots to like about this one.

is the CX trans still with it?

69RSCOPO 01-10-2016 09:16 PM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
The CX11 is long gone...The Heskett Brothers switched it over to a 4 speed for awhile..it still has the clutch setup and clutch pedal.The BE rearend is still there though

I'm no COPO expert...but based on the photos and the description I would leave it alone. Just make sure the mechanicals are in order and enjoy it. The world doesn't need another pretty face [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I thought Mark Bulaw was the go to guy for COPO Information let alone Hemi information. That Guy has found more cars for Everybody than I know. For me I'll stick to old Toronado's, &amp; old VW Convertibles, something I can afford.

wilma </div></div>i agree with tom. I would detail it, make engine compartment pretty, and play with it. It would get more attention at shows and cruises. That resto would cost 75,000.

I agree buy it,clean it up, drive it and have a ton of fun!!!!
That car don't look at all to me!!

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
what was the asking price in the ad?

COPO CARTEL 01-11-2016 12:41 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Please show pics of the Rearend stamping ....I remember Mike telling me about how they added some stamping from the factory ...I based my opinion on what was told to me by Mark Bukaw who visually saw the car with Jim Pearse ...and you had 1-2 phone conversations with Mark...I was told. The Hemmings ad was 1997 for 20k I think. Mark had said since Mike lived in a trailer the car was very poorly stored. The car was misrepresented to a few of us by Mike.... I was told by Mike that the motor and rear was real to the car. If it was drag raced as hard as I was told then the drivetrain almost never survives.

COPO CARTEL 01-11-2016 12:42 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Eddie it was 75k and the ad has been deleted.

COPO CARTEL 01-11-2016 12:43 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Since I haven't seen it and others have ...please show us more detailed pics. Thanks

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Does this car have a 120 mph speedo?

69RSCOPO 01-11-2016 01:31 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
Yes it is 120 Speedo...Mr. Perry I really don't see how Mike's living situation or where he lives has anything to do with this car or thread. Matter of fact Mike has an amazing garage and I would really love to have it myself. Also Mike is not in this thread so he is not here to defend himself so I feel his name does not need to brought into this. Mark Bukaw is extremely nice and has always went out of his way to speak with me when I have called him, but I'm pretty sure he would not like people posting things he has said in private over the phone with you or anyone for that matter. I'm not sure how this thread got so far off subject or how it got to be a &quot;Mike Zimmerman Bashing Match&quot; but I really wish we would just stop. Mike has never lied to me or done anything wrong as well as I do not understand why Mark's name is being brought into this thread. Another thing is I don't know what the car sold for in 1997, nor do I really care being that was 20 years ago. In my opinion this car is not junk and would make a really good car for someone that is wanting a COPO. The car has had multiple 75k offers, but I may have decided to keep it. To everyone that posted positive comments, thanks.

P.S. I don't see the point in taking a bunch of pictures for someone who has no interest in even buying the car. Thanks &amp; God Bless

COPO CARTEL 01-11-2016 01:51 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
I am merely stating the facts as presented to me by Mike and Mark.... Mark and I are friends and have spoken today twice about this thread.....Mark had said you spoke last week ...I am glad you are keeping the car....please enjoy ...all of us on this site enjoy cool cars and would love to see more detailed photos of the car.

COPO CARTEL 01-11-2016 02:31 AM

Re: 1969 COPO RS WOW
 
You had said an hour ago that you might have decided to keep the car. I just received a text ..that M.K. from Arizona bought the car earlier today ...10k mile cars don't look like that and it's been painted. We had a 4K mile Copo that M.K. purchased for a friend that looked a lot different than your pics.
