COPO Camaro fair market value
 

Good morning everyone. I was hoping to gain a little insight on the current fair market value of copo camaros, specifically ones without the original drivetrains.

Earlier in the year, a 1969 fathom green copo/rs camaro sold at barrett jackson in scottsdale, arizona, for $150,700.00. Assuming that is an accurate gauge for copo/rs fair market value in 2010, does anybody have an educated guess about what that same car might have sold for if, for instance, the car had non-original engine, transmission and rear-end?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Every B-J contestant has signage stating that buyers are to assume non-original drivetrain and unknown miles unless otherwise stated. I was there and have one of the info cards the owner of this car [N640809] prepared for the show. It makes no mention of drivetrain originality but does claim 46,000 miles. The car was in the main tent so it could not be closely examined. Looked nice but probably not OE drivetrain.

This car would have done better with OE drivetrain and "real" docs. It went on the block Saturday evening, prime time sellers pay a premium for.

My opinion? That's where non-Yenko L72 COPOs were. Where they are now will be determined at Scottsdale. Suddenly there are a number of them on the market.

You won't find an oe drivetrain real doc'd 69 COPO for $151,000.

I was led to believe this was an original drive train car... however if I had to assume I would say no after looking at the bio on the car. You would think it would dedicate a few lines to being clear the drive train is original instead of talking about a picture/painting the car was in

Exactly.

It all depends on the personality and motivation of the seller. Some have to sell. Some collectors are high profile; some prefer privacy. Many cars are privately transacted.

There is an automatic ZL-1 and an automatic Yenko quietly for sale here. No hurry, let's see where the market is. He has sold two cars out of his collection with a few phone calls and has a 3rd sale pending.

Patience is usually rewarded.

Seems like a screaming deal. What's wrong with it?
