BE COPO rear for sale??

[bergy]

After looking at it in its "as found" condition, I certainly believe what you are saying Matt. The "BE" looked good to me. How did you determine the assembly date?

The assembly date on the rear end housing? 0416G2. April 16th. I don't know the assembly date of the car.

I was asking how you figured out that 0416G2 was the actual assembly date. It looked like that part of the stamp was gone prior to the repairs.

There was nothing welded over the stamping, it's just rusty marks from a U bolt. It was perfectly fine under the paint.

I see it now - thanks

This rear is 100% real and legitimate and can be backed up with other known stamps that look similar to mine. COPO's were sold as factory race cars and these cars usually went through multiple stages of modifications to keep up with ever changing NHRA rules. Honestly, who would restamp this rear end on a housing that's had so many modifications and then paint it with multiple layers of paint and professionally age it and sell it to me for a modified 12 bolt price at a random swap meet? It doesn't make any sense. It came out of the Spring Englishtown swap meet last year. It was just an old race car rear end to the guy that I got it from who was back halfing his car. This is Yenko.net, and it is advertised here, which comes with a 100% guarantee of authenticity or your money back.

I suspected that was the situation when you bought this rear Matt... Exactly my point...why restamp a butchered up rear?? 100% REAL !!

Just to recap.. the negative comments about my BE rear in this thread lost me my sale, so thanks to that for the people who have no clue when it comes to rare parts like this. It was just recently brought to my attention by another member here that I have the same exact rear as another COPO currently listed for sale. Just a heads up to all the naysayers... here is a DOCUMENTED COPO that has the same exact rear end date code and assembly stamping.

If my comments attributed to your loss of sale, I truly apologize. I just read back through the thread and only see a reasonable discussion though questioning something that didn't look right. Uneducated on the specific subject as the opinions might have been, I stated that it was just my opinion based on what I was seeing in the pic. I'm sure my words aren't going to fix anything, but I do apologize if I screwed something up for you.
