"YOU ShOULD GET IN TO POLITICS"..............Barry, I hear the mayoral job in Toronto is the one to have??

[BARRY]

Keep politics off of this site.

My opinion ain't worth much, but I don't think the sellers were trying to be deceitful.....just the opposite. If I ever have a possible COPO for sale, I'll get bbentley to write the ad. That way it will be flawless. And if it isn't he can't very well "shoulda" his own words.

I contacted the owner to make an appointment to inspect the car. I have NO interest in buying it, but I do enjoy looking at old race cars. The owner sent me a message that the listing was being withdrawn in anticipation of a certification inspection this weekend. He/she would not give me a contact phone number at this time. The only additional thing that I noticed from the eBay pictures - is it my eyes, or does the pass side TT rivet appear to be much larger in diameter then the drivers side rivet? I personally hope that it is an RS COPO - would be killer when restored!

I don't think the sellers were being deceitful either. They were just repeating things they had read and been told. I didn't have to be sarcastic when I made some earlier posts, but what irked me is that a lot of guys here are so well meaning, genuinely helpful and dag gone knowledgeable, and a car like this generates a ton of interest, no doubt, that everyone chiming in was not always careful to state as Sgt. Friday would say,"just the facts,mam." This led to an ad on the ebay that was easy to discredit. Worst is, the sellers praised this site, and while not intentional, gave the site a black eye possibly by making us seem wrong in our facts, which is why the sellers got involve with sYc in the first place was to "get it right." Had I not been on here for awhile, if one read what was stated and drew a conclusion that they must have learned what is stated off that site and those guys must not know anything. Mr. Lilliard and others have worked hard to make it not only a fun group of car guys(gals), but a group with credible knowledge. So, when I saw statements that easily be discredited, I got a little honked off and sarcastic. Like most , if not all, here, I too have seen it all...think I said that in 1st post.

Not trying to stir the pot but are you a player on this car? I have seen very creditable people say this car is in line with a lot of known copos. Not saying it is a copo but you down playing the car might mean your a player. I know Bergy and Doug Perry will find out if it is what it is and hope this car will be something.
