Default Re: CoPo? on Ebay?

People, do your research. You need to on this type of car. Info IS on the trim tag. Im not talking about the exterior color or X code. My opinion is based on the extensive research i have on the 05 (MAY of 69) 1969 Camaros. There is a noticible difference between the RPO and COPO in May of 69. Just tring to be helpful.

Just a silly question here...and not trying to be funny (I know, hard to believe ) but if the car is sold, why is the ebay auction still running?

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.

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