I've got a couple of copies of ads from Scuncio.I'll check the dates when I get home from work.

What is "a service package"? Would this mean possibly a replacement block? The green COPO at Barrett with a replacement block brought only $38000. Does a $30k reserve seem reasonable?? Also wonder if floorpans or wheelwells have been hurt in any way.

Looking at COPO prices at Barrett-Jackson. No probably not worth it unless it was super special which at this point it doesn't reflect. Also what is up with that new inducted hood in the pictures. Bill, the owner did not say but if it was raced as much as he claims I would think the car had a monster hood scoop added at some point. The owner said the car was not cut up but I'll bet the quarters panel well are knock in to allow for drag slicks. Tha car is set up with an add on traction kit '69 circa he added..... If Brian Henderson chimes in he will have some answers as for Scuncio and dates. The owner has gotten over 250 Email on this car and added that he will not respond back by e-mail. It will be interesting to see how much it goes for or who is the first to get to him and hand him cash and close the auction.

Deb was a well known Speed Shop/Engine builder in NE around that time. I recall a famous '69 Camaro that had DEB in large letters on it. Car had tons of magazine coverage and was in lots of speed equipment ads. It was always in the New York based publications i.e. Hot Cars, Rodder and Super Stock etc.
If it is the same car it has lots of pedigree.Didn't the Scunio sponsored '69 that was in all their ads have DEB on it??

FYI Another '69 Camaro was sponsored by Debs was a small block Z-28 and called the "Ridgerunner" and had the 1st tunnel ram setup made on a production line called applicply the "Ridgerunner"

There are numerous reasons the 2 mentioned COPOs at auction ,achieved their respective bids.

But,how about the Hugger Orange COPO? It was in very good condition and was bid just a bit higher than the other two mentioned on this thread?

[NWYENKO]

I think the orange car went for $73k,which was significantly higher than the others. A beautiful orange Canadian car fully documented and correct restoration sold in the upper $60's last spring. Documentation,as well as matching drive train seem to be the real premium. The really nice Yenko at Russo Steele brought $74500 without any matching running gear.
