A few days ago a friend showed me the Ebay ad on the car you bought,X11, BB heater core, cowl switch on accelerator arm, etc. It really looked not messed with. Either way the parts were worth more than you paid. If it had a real BE that is a great bonus. Post some detailed shots of the firewall, cowl switch, BE stamp, etc. The trim tag was re-riveted for some reason. Early build for a real Copo car thats for sure. You never know. Good luck.

If the trim tag was re-rivited,then that would be interesting,the only way to tell then is by the vin?Here is the trim tag

Those rivets don't look original!

Real tag, bad rivets. But the tag date lines out with the VIN.

Dave,

How closely does the cowl date & Vin "line out" as you
mentioned? Do the non-original rivets indicate that this
cowl tag was affixed to this car sometime after original
manufacture?

First car in Feb was 589721 and the last one of the month was 607164. Tag may be original to the car, but has definitely been off and then put back on with non-original rivets. Unfortunate, because now the car will forever be questioned, even if it is the original tag.
