Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic

Excuse me if I'm totally wrong but I thought there was a certain '69 Nova involved in the foolishness?.  ~ Pete [/ QUOTE ] That is/was another case, and it's in litigation as we type. That case is another reason for losing credibility.

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.

Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
The case in litigation is a Nova, not a COPO Nova either. William is right though, the COPO Camaro's are hard to doc - which is why many of the most knowledgeable people don't do cert's!
There is a Yenko Camaro that was cert'd by EdC - turned out there were two of them, and he cert'd the wrong one that was missing a trim tag and a vin on the f/wall. That's in litigation right now too. Last year was a messy year, I can see why he hung it up.

Mark is correct, the black copo chevelle is another one - it is indeed a road of no return. That road is called 'reputation'.

Re: REAL COPO? saw what I think is REAL see my pic
I hate that sorta crap...that stuff is as wrong as wrong gets. Too bad the hobby got to where that became irresistible and even prevalent.
