That was not Craig's car his is a ZL1 COPO 9560.

The silver RS automatic Canadian COPO 9561 was proven to be a rebody, wherein the secondary VINs were cut out and welded into another body. Both of these cars have been discussed at length here on the site.

There seem to be some questions and discussion as to whether or not the Fathom Green Bench Mark Classics COPO is a rebody or not?

I personally inspected this COPO for potential purchase....before, during and after the restoration. The shop which performed the majority of the work was at the very low end quality wise, of the restoration spectrum, IMO.

One of our customers had a '67 Firebird 400 convertible at that shop......which came out in worse shape than when it went in.....his words. He had to bring the car to another shop in order to get it finished.

Any way, they are no longer in business, to the best of my knowledge.

The COPO did not need to be rebodied and the VINs and trim tag were authentic. If I remember right it was radio delete too.

I was informed that another shop corrected some of the issues.

I believe that based on what is presented that this is a fair value for a real 9561 COPO Camaro.

Given the price of $115k and the amount of time they are sitting on this car I am sure there is still room there to negotiate a better price on it.

If you were to get the car for $100k-$110k that still leaves alot of room in the car that strip it back down to correct the issues of a poor restoration. The only issue I have with that is the color combo is what I feel the least desirable - given a nice cortez silver or a hugger orange I may be working on chipping away at them for a low price to get it.

One thing to note however is that in Jerry's report he did say that the sheet metal work was looking good - I guess the quality could have been lost in the final details.
