Per the reply given in the auction:
"This is definitely a REAL COPO car. Info is on the trim tag."


Anyways, if it aint what it's described to be, a 10-10 car would be nice to own!

The heater core cover may or may not have been off but I can tell you from experience that because the firewall was "blacked out" before the cover was installed the finishes were totally different.
The firewall ended up a random sprayed almost flat black or dry sprayed black that was just to cover up the chalk markings and overspray. Being dry sprayed or flat the paint held the grime and grease more than the heater box cover.
The heater box cover was the GM reconditioning black color..60 deg gloss. Which was painted by dipping so the finish was extremely smooth. So with minor and I stress minor cleaning of the engine compartment there could be a large difference in the finishes on these two parts.

You have no reason to lie but you sure had no problem calling one of our members Julian Johnson a liar when he showed up with the original engine for the last COPO you sold. Did you not tell potential buyers of the last COPO you sold that the motor Julian had was a restamp when in reality it was you who had the restamped motor?

Hylton...I don't remember anything in that old thread that proved or anyone claimed he stamped the engine in the car he was selling. He claimed it was in the car when he got it. Try to keep this stuff straight.

I have a black COPO that was sold new at Frost. The dealership changed hands several years back and is now Dave Kehl Chevrolet. I am interested in who you talked to that remembered the car you are selling, as I called Kehl and I could obtain no info or knowledge about my paricular COPO nor did they have any of the old sales records.
