Some of you guyz crack me up on the authenticity and cowl tag demands you make on member cars. Now...don't get me wrong, some of you have great cars, and some of you are dreamers. The louder cry babys have the best dreams I guess. No problem.....But the fact of the matter is this; as many an article on the 427 Camaro that has been written claiming this and that and that this nut was this way, and that mark was that way..YOU WEREN'T THERE; nor was I. Some articles say we'll never know what rolled out the the plant back then because copious records don't exist. PERIOD.I can tell you that at a Chevy/VettVest show in Philly 10 or so years ago, this "clipboard" guy was hounding all day Saturday for me me to uncover my cowl tag too. He was claiming that because there was no Harrison 4-row" it couldn't be a factory 427. Now, I'm no little guy; and to be honest with you, he was pissing me off with his cavalier, no-it-all attitude. This is all going on while a friend of mine has his Green Yenko parked next to me (he's a member of this board and you can see gorgeous "cover car" in the attach. So, Keith says, "tell him to put up or shut up" I tell the guy if he want to see the tag to doucument his findings, put $250. bucks on the hood. He did "have it on him". So I say, WTF. He looks under the peice of paper over the tag....and kinda got real quite. I thought maybe he passed out or something. Without a muttering a word, he turns and then says "you're right, nice car"

This is the picture at the show. Keith is the blond hair guy with the beard. His car is sweet too. He used to live 2 miles from me but now live in Florida

It is a sweet car, but how about a cowl tag picture? It sounds like it will make all of us shut up and respect the car more. By the way, did you beat the Hemi again?

Keith has a really nice Yenko Camaro...wish I would have bought it...how is he doing anyway ? no one is discounting your car. When they see SS emblems etc. it throws up a lot of questions thats all....a lot of people are curious as to whether this is a COPO Camaro....there are many many people here who have them and more and aren't dreamers so I 'm sure you aren't here trying to impress anyone...wrong place for that....members just want to know what exactly you are talking about since you are new to this site.

I'm new here as you can see. What's the problem with letting someone see a cowl tag? I don't get it? By the way, I guess I'm a dreamer. The only way I'm getting a COPO is if I win the lottery.

Jeff, I have been quietly watching you talk about your car. I even think that some of the members were hard on you. Now I have to say that I think that the way you are going about talking about your car sucks. I think that it is about time you stop with the games and either put up or go away.
