Wow, I guess my 69 Baldwin Motion Camaro is a waste of time because it is NOM, come to think of it so are all the '67 and '68 Yenko Camaros along with the '69 Yenko Novas and all the Dick Harrell cars........

Wait a second, I thought the Super Cars were called COPA cars... Central Office Production Accidents.

![]() I think there is lots of cars that has®nt the original engine in it, but they®ve put one numbers correct, with broach marks and all the goodies in it, and restamped it. It®s hard to tell, and after it has changed hands a couple of times it is considered very much likely a matching numbers car!! NEW |

OK, I was being a bit sarcastic as obviously all of the cars I mentioned were originally transplant cars and hence would not be "numbers matching" While #'s matching is nice and adds some value, the Supercars we talk about on this board have tremendous value with or without the original engine. As far as corvettes go, I would venture to guess half the "numbers matching" cars are restamps which is especially common in the corvette ranks.
Rick, "Super Chevy Judge" man that's a low blow. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

COPO,
Your very right about the Corvettes. Food for thought -- there were 3,000 1967 CORVETTE 427/435 TRI-POWER CARS ORIGINALLY BUILT FROM GM .... in the NCRS ALONE THERE ARE 13,000 REGISTERED 1967 CORVETTE 427/435 TRI-POWER CARS. DO THE MATH, 1 IN EVERY 3 1967 TRI-POWER CORVETTES IS A FAKE. -Dan

I agree its nice, or even best if its numbers matching, but if you think abt. the purpose of the cars, and the guys buying, and driving them, you®ll have to expect that some things blew up.
I bougth a Berger HOT ROD edition, and have been checking and reading the various LS 1 forums, THEY BREAK PARTS, and in 30 years, someone will arrange it so it is at least matching numbers on that cars as well.(dates, correct numbers, and parts) NEW |
