I know you're kidding about restoration---right? PLEASE leave it in &quot;race&quot; prep. condition. Far too many of the great race cars are either being restored to original as-new condition or already have been, and the real purpose these cars were built in the first place has gone by the wayside. I'd venture a guess that a percentage of the collector car hobby, the higher end if you will, has NO IDEA why the COPO cars even exist. Remember, I said a percentage---not the players here, but the ones who see the cars we love as an &quot;investment&quot;.
GREAT SCORE!!!!! And Congratulations!!!!! </div></div>

Yes, that was just a joke. Tin Soldier stays in historic trim. I may re add the red side stripe once I do more research.
