Default Re: 1969 Camaro copo on ebay

Yes, I went back and checked it out again. The car doesn't retain its original tranny. Original shifter and bracket gone. Had the correct crossmember. It didn't come equipped with D80. Remember I said the best part of the car was the rear, well there is a problem. Because the car was hammered, the pass axle tube developed a crack by the leaf spring perch weld. It had been fixed a one point. Must have been seeping still as the rear, and back half of undercarriage is all oily. On the positive side it did preserve the metal. The heads and possibly the intake is original. The block is a JE with an A stamped over, and askew to the E. The radiator still has its original core, also still had the tag attached. Ducted hood relay was still on the firewall. Tow tabs welded to front subframe. No silver grill, had a newer all black one. The car overall is a very restorable, and has good integrity
Bill now has a LS6 convertible on ebay unrestored, (other than a paint job), and needing restoration. He said he bought the COPO and LS6 off the same guy. Warren
