Default Tribute '69 Camaro said to be 'best in the world'

For sale at a dealer in the UK (I have no connection)
I ask for your critique, so I can learn more
It might already be known to you guys, show winner, magazine car, celebrity owner who surely could have afforded a real one.
Thanks
Lots more photos on the website

Heater delete?
Power steering delete?
No dash clock?
Floor pans underneath color ?
425 hp decal missing off aircleaner ?
Alternator pulley & bracket colors/finishes?
Inner fender paint too shiny?
Brake pedal missing the disc brake emblem?

Wow, very nice COPO Camaro tribute. Interested to hear and learn what the experts have to say as well.

I’m not going to pour over the photos, ‘cause I could rip it a new one. Just casually glancing - window crank knob color, vertical stainless in tail light lenses, engine temp sensor and wire, battery ground location, never had a heater delete off the assembly line. No such thing as P.S. delete, door striker screws not painted, lower alternator bracket incorrect, upper control arm brushing washer color wrong, S.Plug heat shields wrong, proportion valve bracket of master cylinder should not be plated. H2O bypass hose clamps wrong, shifter arms and clevises wrong, driveshaft stripe at wrong end, bunch of B.S. “resoration graffiti”, leaf spring technically wrong, gas tank straps wrong color.... I’m tired , let someone else take over.

Should the rear end be a BE instead of BV, or am I seeing something wrong?

Over detailed underside. No undercoating in wheel housings, tail pipes too low, stance seem too high, trim tag should have paint on it. Looks like it's been off the car. Hood latch should be Phosphate. Has a chrome shift ball. GM sticker in door. Bolts that hold the rear license frame are wrong. Now I'm tired Bentley....Next...Joe

Saw it at SC Indy 2002. Did not have the LH tailpipe adapter; repro tag. Many resto errors.
