The heater core cover may or may not have been off but I can tell you from experience that because the firewall was "blacked out" before the cover was installed the finishes were totally different.
The firewall ended up a random sprayed almost flat black or dry sprayed black that was just to cover up the chalk markings and overspray. Being dry sprayed or flat the paint held the grime and grease more than the heater box cover.
The heater box cover was the GM reconditioning black color..60 deg gloss. Which was painted by dipping so the finish was extremely smooth. So with minor and I stress minor cleaning of the engine compartment there could be a large difference in the finishes on these two parts.

That box has been painted.For me,I would rather see the car as found.I don't know why guys like this jerk the 3 point and paint the heater box.It raises suspicion.

You have no reason to lie but you sure had no problem calling one of our members Julian Johnson a liar when he showed up with the original engine for the last COPO you sold. Did you not tell potential buyers of the last COPO you sold that the motor Julian had was a restamp when in reality it was you who had the restamped motor?

Hylton...I don't remember anything in that old thread that proved or anyone claimed he stamped the engine in the car he was selling. He claimed it was in the car when he got it. Try to keep this stuff straight.

Hylton · #7 03-28-2006, 03:54 AM

I never said that it was he who stamped the engine. My comment was in regards to which engine was the original one.

You are right...Even I am screwing this stuff up.

Its me again, as to why the car is still on E-bay, can you wait for me to get home from work so I can end the auction, everyone is so quick to jump the gun. As to the heater box I never painted it that was the way it was when I got it, he put a new heater core in the car, why he raced it with a heater core I do not know but he did. all I did was take the 502 motor out of the car , and the racing trans, and some other racing stuff. I never painted anything, I have been real lucky to have found two COPO cars, And the person to buy the orange one is very happy, and the new buyer of the black one is very happy also, and I guess that is all that matters

I have a black COPO that was sold new at Frost. The dealership changed hands several years back and is now Dave Kehl Chevrolet. I am interested in who you talked to that remembered the car you are selling, as I called Kehl and I could obtain no info or knowledge about my paricular COPO nor did they have any of the old sales records.
