Re: COPO VALUES IN GENERAL

I don't want to start an argument over Chevy vs. Mopar.
Looking at production numbers is a good way to start when you are trying to value something.
Also you have to look at the "fan base" and I would say without question the most popular brand back in the 60's and 70's was Chevrolet.
So, you might have the same production numbers but you might have more Chevrolet lovers out there.

No one is trying to start an arguement about this. I am simply making a comparision of the two.
I don't think that what was popular in the day has a whole lot to do with what people will pay for a car today. There are MANY hobbist/collectors out there today that are not necessarily brand loyal including myself. This is one of the big reasons for the big jump in Mopar prices a few years back. When it was basically Mopar people buying them the prices remained lower. Suddenly when many collectors realized the low producion numbers compared to GM and Ford products they started looking at and buying them.
I make the comparision between these cars because they are both pony cars with similar engines and similar production numbers.
