Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro

Shevelle · #1 01-05-2009, 04:54 PM

I see that Barrett Jackson has a COPO Camaro running on Saturday. It is silver with blue interior. I don't know if it's my computer or what, but I can't seem to pull up the cars on their website. Does anyone know, is this the same car that was the topic of much discussion last year? The rebodied one?

Is this the one you are referring to? The decription states "During the restoration, this car was re-bodied."

I believe the one that was suspected of being rebodied was Rally Green.

2008 ZR-1 rolling chassis??? WTF? Didn't know GM sold stuff like that.

I'm not sure...the link just takes me to the first page of about 100 cars, Tuesday cars I suspect. I can't figure out why I can't get past that point. Anyway, I thought there was a Silver/Blue car discused here some time ago that had sold at Russo and I was wondering if this was the same car.

Here is the description from the BJ web-site:

This 1969 Camaro was a limited edition production vehicle, equipped from the factory with COPO 9561, a special high performance package which includes an L72 427/425hp engine with a matching numbers motor and transmission. The rear end is the original special posi-traction unit with a heat treated 4.10:1 ring & pinion. Included is a special ducted hood, dual exhaust system, increased cooling capacity and a heavy duty suspension. This car is equipped with the Rally Sport Package and Endura bumper. It was specifically engineered for drag race competition. This car is Cortez Silver with blue interior. During the restoration, this car was re-bodied. It is also documented with the Canadian paperwork and the COPO Connection Certification. This car was formerly from the Reggie Jackson collection.

You have to click on the arrow next to the day. Change it to Saturday. Then look for Lot Number 1354.1 or just scroll down until you see the car.

Finally! An honest Camaro disclosure at B-J.

Thank you for the link - I did finally get it to work for me (wasn't the computer, was the operator

) So yes, it is the same car I remember as being sold in FL at a Russo auction and subsequently being discussed here. Would have been last March or April I guess. I wonder if the seller is the same guy (Pete I think it was) that bought it at Russo. Seems like the discussion here was that he was wanting to get out of the sale. At any rate, it's good to see the car is being representing as what it is.
