I believe a member here owns a Copo with BDY # 293309, 51 51 car that was at the '04 reunion. The Funston car (orange auto) is BDY # 293349. Certainly quite a few Copo cars built during this time. I've never seen a 051 date before.

If the front clip was wrecked, most likely the radiator took it in the shorts too. Is it likely that they would have known enuff to replace the radiator with a more rare curved neck one? No expert (but paranoid) - just wondering.

i did some checking and dutch miller did sell another copo (hugger orange)also what is quite interesting is the vin was pretty close to this car, your body # falls in between some known copos, really close! i think you have the state wrong on the dealer. your vin # falls into an 05a area. i would check this car out more.

I don't think you can draw any conclusion on the pics you have posted unless the VIN is known or you have documents.
