Default Re: 1969 Copo ?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: bbbentley</div><div class="ubbcode-body">First, don't put words in my post or mouth! You are using quotes on words I did not use. 2nd. I resent an accusation of &quot;spouting off&quot;(and that is a quote,by the way)when I seem to be the only voice of reason. I merely have been playing Devil's Advocate, so to speak and looking at everything said from a factual point and trying to bring sanity to the claims. Yes, the car does have some &quot;signs&quot; of its history and claim of a COPO, enough, that I even give it some credence. I am not wanting to start anything with anybody, if anything,posters, here, should proof read what they write. There have been so many things that are stated as it has this...therefore it must be this. Maybe not what is meant, but what is being said, nonetheless. I am merely pointing out, which long ago before this car came along, true proof is documentation at this point. I spent some time researching what I have and found a something that may link a similar car which had a lead to the purchaser. This could be &quot;possibly relevant&quot; if someone wants to or is able to track down this person. I have no &quot;skin in the game&quot;. I thought , I would like to help. At this point, I would only help the seller generate interest (while not against, feel unless it really helped, why not just wait till it sells and buyer may want the info) At this point, it may have no relevance and may not have anything related, that is why I say &quot;may&quot;. Not trying to be secretive, jerky or anything of the kind. I probably should not have even mentioned I read in older publication about a similar car-in Florida. With so many mis-statements by sellers they may make a claim which I do not feel is appropriate. I know the sellers are still learning about the car, but I dislike claims that are not factual, like the car came with a 427, as if they can prove it. That is hearsay. Same with claim about only SS cars come with consoles-B.S. This whole thing is like a circus and the sellers have made it that way IMO by not being factual-not knowing what or how to take pictures and a host of other egregious statements from here-which I was surprised to see. I expected the guys here to be the voice of reason, state the facts. A simple statement in the ad would have been,we believe this is possibly a COPO by the fact some existing components are present(which does not prove without a doubt) and based on its long race history consistent with many of the COPO cars and the pictures provided as evidence. We no way can be 100% an cannot unequivocally pronounce this car to be what we believe at this time . Further data and documentation would have to occur to draw a conclusion, you be the judge. This, I feel, would have been a factual, concise description that would have prevented the current flames from being fanned. </div></div> YOU SOULD GET IN TO POLITICS
