[69LM1]

King Midas,

So, if you got a 69 CoPo drivetrain, even the BE rear, and put it in a six banger, would that make it a CoPo?

My point is that the cars are the same, only the drivetrains and some other associated parts were special (as far as I know).

Which leads to the argument that the 6cyl "Clone" car was never a CoPo and never will be. Which of course begs the question, if this car discussed here was a real CoPo, won't it always be one, even if it had a six banger in it?

For someone like me, this would have been a deal. I can't fork up the 185K for a finished CoPo, but could afford 20k for a project. I could work on it for a few years and in the end have the same car many of those out there do, a NOM original CoPo car. How much metal repalcement is too much? Many CoPo's out there have new quarters, and in some cases floors.

In the end though, I do kinda like Charley's idea of a day two, real CoPo, that you could run the snot out of at the track!

IMHO,

Rich
