Gentlemen and ladies. I don't own a C.O.P.O. or a Yenko or Baldwin Motion car, just a L-78/Th400 factory car, and I saw something that disturbed me, and I hope owners of the cars that have this website's namesake are very disturbed. On page 1679 of the 2002 Mar.Hemming's motor news is a dealer or like selling "technically correct" C.O.P.O. clones!!!???!! I think reproducing a limited number of past model's cheapens the real one's, as with fraudulent reproduction of documents, tags, motor #'s, ect., who is to say what is real and what is not??? What is the point of owning a 69 C.O.P.O of which less than 1200 were made, and there are 5000
cruising around!!! This is a problem for the Auburn Boattail Speedster owner, The 69 KR500 owner, the 33 Deuce Coupe owner, the Charger Datona owner, and on and on. This is a problem for ALL Antique vehicle owners.Joel ILL. Camaro Club
