'69 Camaro COPO Recreation...just gorgeous

[scuncio]

Pretty sweet for a clone...the interior needs some more red parts but that's a couple weekends worth of work.

What could it be worth?

Why a cowl induction hood and the cowl plenum air cleaner?

Beautiful car! Can’t argue that that is a killer color combo. I’m surprised or somewhat disappointed that so much effort was made to make this car look as a new assembly line car, like the over abundance of inspection dabs, OE hoses, etc... Yet, there are many things (details) incorrect. Not intending in any way to diminish or tear apart, but at this level of a build, I would have expected the creator to have done their homework. I won’t list what I see, and it is not important. It just needs a little more work to take it to the next level where a knowledgeable COPO guy would be fooled in believing it was the real deal.

Lovely color combo but info suggests TT added also other concerns even as a clone.
Still beautiful!

Like others have said...good starting point for a nice hotrod...color combo makes the car.

----It would be way easier and about the same money to change the red stuff to black. I love black/red gut cars but all black ain't bad either.......Bill S

3 seats & 4 door panels does a red interior make in my eyes.
Pick a color and follow through..

Spoke to the seller, wants 80k. Pretty tall grass for any clone, but he sent some undercarriage pics and it's like jewelry. I would put red carpet in and call it a day.

I really don't get the cowl plenum air cleaner on a 69. Should have saved those parts for a 67 or 68. Not sure why he is running a no reserve auction if he is wanting $80k.

Not even fix the backup light location?

I asked him what gear it had, he didn't know. He's a nice guy, but don't think he knows alot about the car. Clearly should have put extensive under car pics of it as they are impressive. Not having those is really going hold the bids down, even if he's getting "help" in that respect. Think it would be a steal at 60k, there's a lot of time in it,but at 80 it puts in in real 69Z or SD455 money..one would really have to be looking for a COPO tribute IMO.

80k would provide a profit for seller. Apparently those at BJ this year valued it for less.

IMpressive detective work!

It was for sale for a while in N.C. Prior to BJ. I seen it at the auction, great looking car!

killer panel fit,


The door panels fit so good they don't even need screws across the bottom.
