Possible COPO on ebay

[COPO PETE]

hmmmmmmm Four body #'s off the other Funston Chev sold COPO. Not saying it is either, but like Joe says. Worth taking a look! If you can get it cheap, it could get interesting!

Getting it cheap now is probably out of the question! Once you make it public to the 5 billion people on this board the chance of getting a deal is lost. It's sad because you probably could of had the car for $5K if you didn't go public with the info and let the owner know what he "potentially" has.

I guess we didn't learn anything from the Yenko fiasco in upstate NY... Thanks for thinking of the little guys.

Ah come on Mike you don't have $20k laying around for the purchase and another $100k plus for the restoration? Doesn't everybody have that kind of money to blow on a pile of iron oxide?

You can think of this in two ways. One, somebody might, repeat MIGHT get a great deal on a possible COPO or two, someone will get a good screwing, excuse me a good lesson on how not to buy a car.

A $200k car for $20k or a $1000 car for $20k. Crap shoot on this one.

One question I have, has anybody seen a picture of the cowl induction piercing? Reason I ask is because I wonder were he ran the plumbing for those monster gauges? Obviously not through the factory auto speedo hole because it still has a plug in it. Would like to see the hole they went through and the cowl induction piercing.

p.s. Still think it will not sell. To much interest.

i saw this car and also the be rear i spend hours trying to find deals im sick of people telling this board about all the rare items on ebay so the rich can buy them up any feedback thanks jeff

[Leonard]

Pardon me for not being greedy.

I thought i was thing of EVERYONE on this one. Some of you on this board complain that you do not get a chance at rare cars like this because some of us on this board keep that info to ourselves. Now someone like me gives everone a chance to get a possible COPO and someone like you complains? Its a no win situation. And yes, i thought the seller had a right to know that his car may be a possible COPO. There are alot of us on this board that are here to help people out. Answer questions pertaing to Supercars. Thats what this hobby should be about. Not personal gain $$.

Leo,

Sorry to have put a negative turn on your otherwise good natured and well intended post. Pretty naive of me to hope that no one else noticed the big block heater cover, X44, master cylinder, and other stuff that points this car to being a possible COPO. For me its not about greed, its about being able to justify the purchase. Obviously, risking $5K is alot easier than risking $20+K, especially for a car like this that needs a ton of work.

Sorry if I offended you!

Mike
