Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
That's a rebodied silver deuce. If you do that to a few cars, you tend to lose credibility.

Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
How can you lose credibility by flushing out a rebody?

So, you are right, you won't lose credibility for flushing out a rebody. EdC actually performed the rebody on that Deuce. That car is a 20k mile, forest green, 307 with a/t, from Jersey City, NJ.

Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
I saw the low mile 307 Nova that disappeared and the fresh silver restored Deuce that appeared. When asked about the beautiful original subframe in the Deuce the response was "its from the green car". When asked about the rest of the green car I was told "we had to use some other parts". Like the whole part I guess!
Its very hard to hide the truth, especially in this hobby. Once you go down that road there's no turning back. Also, be on the lookout for the newly re-restored black Copo Chevelle, another "oops I did it again" story! Mark

Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
COPOs are way to easy to clone. The ONLY way they can be verified as the real thing is with OE VIN-stamped drivetrain or genuine factory documentation.
A BE axle doen't mean a thing. I have had a couple of them; several others have been sold.
