Default Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro

I watched the video twice...when did they announce it was a re-body? As a matter of fact...C Jackson said 'this is a real car'..but they knew..it was a re body..hence NOT a real car...

Did I miss something?

I've been to Barrett Jackson twice...it is a meeting place of shysters and automotive idiots...idiots who want to be famous at the expense of paying a HUGE premium.

Jim,

Apparently the statement was made by the auctioneers when the cars came up for sale. It was conveniently edited out of the broadcast.

The sign in front of the ZL-1 stated it was a re-body. Did not help that style trim was added.

The black COPO should have done way better. Nice car only minor issues.

That's scary! Imagine the sellers reaction - taking home less than 90K?

I'm still confused..

poster said he it got footage from his DVR..

The broadcast was 'live' wasn't it?

You can't edit something that is 'live ' can you?

I don't mean to be obtuse...

You can't edit something live but you can decide when the broadcast joins the auction. You see the car already on the block when the broadcast starts so viewers at home have no idea what has been said prior to start of auction.
