no offense, but, don't expect much for 50-60k. it may run , but will nedd restoring for that kind of money. expect to pay 90k-150k depending on rareness and color, gold being the high end, original and rare, ex. brian hendersons 7000 mile awesome camaro.

Kevin is right! To get a documented numbers matching restored COPO Camaro will be in the 80-85K range. A Yenko Camaro is a lot higher. For the price range you are looking for they will probably not have original drive train, so you better have valid documentation. Then you add in a resto which will cost anywhere from 35-40K. Right now, people are holding on to these cars and that just drives the prices even higher! You may find a frame off for 50-60K but be very wary, due to some of these dealers that are passing off clones as the real deal! If you find one that is too good of a deal, you better get ahold of some of the people on this site and varify.

There are a couple of choices in your price range. A Yenko Deuce, or something a little newer, such as the Motion car that was listed on this site. Tom

i understand that my range will only get me a car needing resto ect.im prepared for that.i think its better to start with a real car as in original engine ect than buy one cheaper that is not correct.im in no rush and still looking around.when i do find something i hope the people here with the killer info can help me out.i could be a touch flexible on the figure as long as the car is correct.are most yenkos and copos without there original engine ect?

My 69 Harrell Camaro will be for sale in the near future. It is very original with 24,000 miles.

Engines and tranies took a real beating in these cars. I would say it will be very difficult to find one with matching drive train. The Muncie transmissions were a weak link in the drive train, they just could not take the torque of those big engines. You will find some with the original engine but not many with original 4 speed. Just take your time and be patient, something will show up!

I Understand what you are going thru--I Had the MONEY and still couldn't get a car. NOBODY is going to tell you about a car that is a good deal they will buy it theirself. The best thing to do is to find a broker that will find you a car and pay them a commission. The cars keep going up so don't take too long. I wish you luck and hope you get something. In my situation it was WORTH the Wait..

While this may not necessarily be statistically correct I have found that most of the Muscle cars which I inspect (that would be more than half) of all makes and models are proported to have their original drivetrains but less than half actually do.

These are regular, everyday, mass produced (usually in multiples of 10,000) muscle cars like GTOs , SS 396 Chevelles and Super Sport Camaros.

Super Car drive trains were less likely to Survive, just as T Billigen stated. Many of the Super Cars were full blown race cars if not at least weekend warriors, or steet racers.

The temptation to take any solid lifter muscle car with a free breathing exhaust well past redline can be irresistable.

One split second and missed shift later you may no longer have an original motor.

I would say that less than 25% of the Documented and found Super Cars have the engine, trans and rear axle housing that they had when they left the dealership as new.

Most of the trouble with the big block hi-po engines were the valve spring retainers, the stock one were not strong enough to take the high RPMs and you would suck a valve. First thing I did with my engines was change these, I never did blow an engine. Can't say as much for the trannies though!

Are you looking for a big-block only car? If you are interested in a deuce e-mail me. I can get you a #'s match car. It is not my orange car. It is sold.

[VIPERICH]

i could of bought the original duece in blue a short while back but id like a big block if possible.

[Charley Lillard]

I still have my 1980 Motion Phase 3 car to sell and it's cheaper that the range you are talking about. And it's a big block...........

[SS427]

Charley, have you talked to Vince lately? I told him you were trying to sell yours a while ago and he wanted to know about it. Maybe his phone only works one direction. /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif

VIPERICH;
You might be interested in the burgandy COPO car in CT that was on EBAY awhile back. I heard that the winner of the auction didn't follow through with the sale, and it is still available. There is a lot of discussion about the car on older thread.

[VIPERICH]

which area was the thread in?thanks a bunch

[68TopStock]

I would take a look at your posts, what did you miss with the hint from Jason? /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif

[mc25t190]

[Rat_Pack]

VIPERICH, I think the black Camaro that Ray Dupont has is still for sale at $55k as is. Super nice car. It came from Scuncio and has been a drag car since day one. I think he still has the front disc brakes for the car. See picture attached..................RatPack.................
