69 COPO silver with red interior on E-bay - Page 2

How could this car possibly be real?? The VIN posted corresponds to an October '68 build date which is long before the COPOs were available. Also, notice the 10-bolt rear and a cowl hood which also was not available when this car was built. Looks like an expensive mistake for a potential buyer.

Like above the onwer has said that it has a 512 block and the engine code is VI008MN could they also have gotten the VIN wrong also and maybe its 616659 instead of 516659 making it one off the Douglass car with a VIN of 616658??? either way if it does in fact have a MN coded engine whos car does it belong in? He has also stated that the rear end is not orginal to the car but we already knoew that if it were a COPO

Did he say if there is a vin number stamped on the block? If so in which location deck or near oil filter?

He never said but I did ask him to check for one along with any other numbers he can find on the car. Like his ad on e-bay indicates he also said that he didnt know to much about Camaro's. Even asked for better pics of the engine to include any of the numbers he finds, well see what happens

Jeff,
The "V" should make it a Flint Michigan Built engine?
I thought all COPO L72 engines were built at the "T" Tonawanda, New York Plant? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Maybe it is one of the GM engineering mules that Jim Mattison was caught having fun with on Woodward Ave?

The guy that bid must be a dealer. Look at his feedback and you can see what he's been buying.
