possible copo

[Jeff H]

I doubt it's the original rear as well. 2 weeks is a long time frame for a car to have been started and then sit around waiting for a component like a BE rear. I would think they would stick a regular 4.10 rear in a car to keep the line moving then pull something aside like that. Chris, what are the dates on the other components inside the rear? Are there any signs that the rear could have been removed at some point in it's life or are the u-bolts so rusted that it looks like it's been there forever? Kurt, does CRG have any cars on record that have documentation like the p-o-p with a rear that was stamped incorrectly? I'm wondering what the chances would be that it's an 0510 rear that was stamped 0610? I just think it's a curious situation and the car sure seems to be a COPO but the rear really throws an odd curve. I still think it would be an amazing coincidence that someone would end up swapping one BE rear for another BE rear especially if most people didn't even know the significance of those rears way back when. This is the kind of stuff that helps us all learn more so I hope I'm not wasting anyone's time with my comments! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
