Default Re: Mecum Kissimmee Gold 69 COPO - Thoughts?

It was the only COPO we ordered as the others we sold were from stock. The car was sold to a gentleman by the name of DiSilva from Belmont Chev Olds performance division.It was raced and the engine was grenaded!! He replaced it with a 454 and it was a big secret as he didn't want anyone to know so he could still race in the same class. The fact that it is being sold with the original engine is a complete fraud. I've contacted Mecum about this but I really don't expect a reply. There are more bogus COPO's out there than the factory ever produced. Buyer beware </div></div>

&quot;hi i owed that car for 20 years yes wrong shifter handle that car has one of the best bodys out thier i am a painter i stripped that car of the original paint... the foors are perfect all origanal drive train when i sold the car in 1998&quot;

Hotrodmac, I would believe that the car was considered a &quot;colour trim overide&quot; on the paperwork ? ,and did he have to acknowledge in writing that there were no returns on the car once it was ordered ?

absolutely nothing wrong with that color combo (I would swap out the steering wheel though)
