Default Re: 1969 Copo ?

Hmmm different story ....I was told that you inspected the car and the both of you could not agree upon a price. The seller contacted me after the both of you could not get a deal done.. that was his words to me . He never said it was a COPO ..but was hoping it to be and asked me to come and inspect the car. The Rearend in question was dated 10-8-69. That would be almost 2 weeks after the build date on the car ....as you looked at the reproduction tach you concluded that it was a 396 low horse car...and inspecting the date and axle code was a start to an intense inspection ..... I am the one that brought it to your attention that is was a reproduction tach and the big block heater box had never been touched.... As well as the trim tag with X 11 code had not been messed with or altered. Also some other COPO traits were still there . I guess the original owner Joe Patrick was the ace in the hole as I found him approx 9 months after I purchased the car. He is approx 74 years old and lives on Marion Ohio. Doing ones homework does pay off.... This particular car went on to score Legends at GM Carlisle.
