Default Possible COPO on ebay

Found this on ebay. I spoke with seller. X44 car. Ex race car. He informed me of cowl induction piercing in firewall. Has speedometer cable piercing in firewall for muncie trans. Has big block springs and heater box. Im 98% sure this is a COPO. What caught my attention was the info on trim tag. Anyone looking for a COPO should check this one out. :burnout http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...wItem&rd=1,1&item=4637491226&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA% 3AIT

Most race cars dont have power brakes due to lack of vacum so they would install drums to stop...

Not so sure about that, looks like a power disc brake #309 master cylinder to me, only the booster is missing. Its definitely not a drum brake master cylinder.

Joe, talked to seller this morning about disc brakes. He stated that there were drum brakes on car. I told him to check upper control arms(upper a-frames) to see if there was a hole pierced and threaded for disc brake line retaining bracket(drum brakes do not have this)and he mentioned that he had problems with the brake lines in the past because of drum brakes. He did not tell me what the problem was.I also noticed the wider master cylider but forgot to have him get the # from it for me.

10 body #'s away from my white car. Likely sold in Michigan. I'd bet on it being a COPO car. Lots and lots of work!
