I heard the deal on the gold copo Camaro didnt go thru there was enough evidence pointing to it not being authentic. I have to give Mecum Auction credit for letting this happen. I bet at Barrett you would have owned the car.

Did Hutson's Yenko collection sell complete, or was it separated?

I thought the Gold COPO had Ed's Certificate and some other paper work?? I almost bid on it because I thought it very cheap but thought to myself that something had to be up with it because of the price.. Glad I went with my gut feeling! The same guys who had the COPO had a few other really nice cars there..They also had the Orange RS/Z Crossram that sold for 130k..That still blows my mind!!! I ended up bringing my LS6 and there was probably 10 others there it seemed..I always choose to bring the wrong car.

The gold car didn't have a certificate from Ed. Also, don't forget, at 1.7 mil, the total comes to $1,785,000., assuming there was no deal cut on the commission. Anybody care to venture a guess on how that would break out among the five cars?

Mike, is that a trick question? It is hard to get to $1.785M using known sales numbers of other cars. Certainly a big premium for buying them together.

Yeah, it's pretty tricky alright. I'm just wondering how one would break out the relative values of the '67 vs the '68,&amp; '69 Camaros, and, the Chevelle &amp; Nova. For instance, is 300 each X four, plus 500 for the Nova make sense? Plus 5%, of course.
