Most race cars dont have power brakes due to lack of vacum so they would install drums to stop...

Not so sure about that, looks like a power disc brake #309 master cylinder to me, only the booster is missing. Its definitely not a drum brake master cylinder.

Joe, talked to seller this morning about disc brakes. He stated that there were drum brakes on car. I told him to check upper control arms(upper a-frames) to see if there was a hole pierced and threaded for disc brake line retaining bracket(drum brakes do not have this)and he mentioned that he had problems with the brake lines in the past because of drum brakes. He did not tell me what the problem was.I also noticed the wider master cylider but forgot to have him get the # from it for me.

This guy thinks he might have a possible COPO because someone looked at 13 hazy pictures and made an "educated" guess that it's a COPO????

Must be the reason his NO RESERVE auction now has a statement with a $20,000 dollar ending price.

"My Brother said due to numerous phone bids he will accept twenty thousand to end auction". I bet he would, I know I would if it was mine and someone offered me $20k. Can you say SOLD!?

Could be a BB car, could be a COPO, heck it could be the rare and ellusive X44 Z/28. Why not, it has a Z/28 emblem on the tailpanel.

All BS aside, I truely hope someone looks at this car in person before they buy to make absolutely sure what they are getting. Ebay is a haven for junk, fakes and wannabees.

p.s. got feeling we'll be seeing an auction ending early because item is not longer for sale.

Rick H, im the someone that looked at the picture and had a phone conversation with the seller. Yes, this car needs to be inspected well before any $$ has passed hands. From my conversation and info obtained, i realized it had some key items that make it a POSSIBLE COPO. BE rear is gone, daul exhaust plate is gone, It has the cowl induction piercing in correct location along with muncie trans speedocable piercing in firewall, and info found on trim tag that is consistant with most other COPOs built that time frame. Any info i have posted on this site is base on my opinion(from research and data).All i am saying is, if someone is looking for a COPO on a lower $$ scale, They should look at this car and inspect it well.It has some of the key items found on COPOs. IMO.

How does a dual exhaust plate that is welded to the frame disappear?
