They're still out there (COPO) hiding in plain sight.

I had already received photos of the car from a potential buyer and the asking price was 50k...seeing what that car needs and what it will cost to restore without Motor, Transmission and Documentation...you will be upside down when it comes to value...post restoration.

Cool find, I would be sending off the NCRS dealer query, might get you somewhere. Did Rob find this?

Are you saying the seller knew it was a COPO ?

The guy who owned it and had it on the trailer on a side street in Philly just thought it was an old race car. It was purchased as just an old race car. Wasn't until he got it home, and with the help of a buddy, figured out it was a copo. Car isn't for sale at the moment as far as I know, but who knows who takes pics and tries to see if they can have it sold before selling it is even talked about.

Yep...I was told the seller knew it was a Copo...the photos I got are mostly the photos that are posted here on the first page. The potential buyer is a member here and sent me the photos in the last 3 days

Question for the COPO experts... without a numbers matching block, POP, or other factory/dealer documentation, will the “tell tale signs” be enough to bring COPO money, especially after a costly restoration?
