Re: 1969 COPO
 

Not sure but I wondered the same thing. Is this Chris Cadwallader's old car?

Re: 1969 COPO
 

The car was painted blue and in southern Ohio for sale some years ago. I believe S. Bimbi from Nickey bought the car then, maybe done by Chris C. Where do they get those re-grained steering wheels?

Re: 1969 COPO
 

Mark, Gary's steering wheel restoration in Carlisle does the regrain, I have seen a few and I had one done myself.

Re: 1969 COPO
 

I thought the new Repros have the grain.

Re: 1969 COPO
 

I don't like the large fish-scale look steering wheel refinishing, nothing like the small pebble grain of originals.

Re: 1969 COPO
 

Completely agree with that statement.
Looks to ridiculous,thick & shiny too,like it was dipped in maple syrup.

71 K WOW

Re: 1969 COPO
 

That is a terrible ad... Mentions certifications but ambiguous regarding originality? Why not just take 4 more pics - cowl tag, motor stamp, trans stamp, diff stamp? And the reserve wasn't met. He likely wants much more

Others can weigh in w/ important details but besides presentation, pictures showing large gaps/poor panel alignment also color tones questioning individual panel repairs and/or paint seemed more concerning than the steering wheel?
Love the Shell signs, especially that hanging one!
