Default Re: 1969 Copo ?

Some of these cars have been lost to badged up Z28 race cars ....I have been lucky ....of all the cars that I have purchased most of them did not have certain drivetrain components nor paperwork ...but based upon my inspection ...I considered them to be COPO cars....and not one has failed me thus far. My point is only to say if you do enough homework then eventually it pays off. We had this issue with the Radical One when we inspected it 2 weeks before the auction took place. It is healthy to disagree but wrong to discredit any particular car until it has been inspected...and only then it becomes an opinion. My black COPO was discredited...and with homework ...it was found to be one body number off another documented COPO from the same dealership and further homework turned up Joe Patrick of Marion Ohio ...the original owner. My point is ...you just can't quit on a car or part it out just because you have no paperwork or some/all of the drivetrain is missing.
