70 Z Copo on ebay........

[owners2]

Chuck when i ran into the owner at the camaro Nationals last year i was told (but didn't see) that there were 2 build sheets to the car & that the 1st was for the car being done as a Copper car & the 2nd is showing that they sent the car back to be painted black. I took a really good look at the car even inside the trunk area & you can see copper under the black in the hard to get areas such as in the trunk jamb ribbing & where some black is actually chipped & flaking off in areas.I was really pissed i had left my camera with my car,i never ran into the car again!

[COPO 70 RS/Z28]

"If you also had the center console around the shifter, you also got the burled wood treatment on the console as well."

I disagree with the above statement!!!

I maintain that the woodgrain shift plate ONLY came with the Custom Interior. The D-55 console with Std Interior came with Black Shift plate.

Here is my source Chuck...

Illustrated Camaro Buyers Guide second edition by Michael Antonick published in 1987.




On page 74, this book clearly states my above statement. I guess ya learn something new every day huh Chuck!

70 Forest Green Zee, I stand corrected.....There are not enough interior accent Z-28's out there........

Would you please send me a P.M. and ID yourself....or refresh my lousy memory.

I see this car doing $30-35K. I don't see it doing the $50-60K of a restored 70 Z. I think the COPO adds 20%, kind of like the RS option.

Sorry I have been quiet. Got invited fishing/duck hunting (only in Louisiana can you do both in the same day!).

I agree with the above. IMO, It is very hard to find a numbers matching 70Z today, that I think that almost means more than the COPO option. "The Market" definatly does not care for the automatic option either.

I think that it is a cool car, and someone who gets it will be able to bring it to the next level with some elbow grease and $$.

Either way, a part of Chevy History, and I think the seller presented the car well as what it is.

Cool on the paperwork, more than my 70 Z COPO, and some more consistent evidence where the 70 COPO code had a circle around it in pencil, then "COPO Spoiler" written next to it.

I wonder if the cars were pulled from the line to get the spoiler?

Were some 1970 Z28's delivered without the rear bumperettes?
