My point is when a car is represented as something on this site, especially a COPO there will be a healthy discussion. In this instance it is very clear this car is not a COPO. It is irrelevant whether it's being sold now or not, the true heritage, identity and history is important!
I have a Baldwin Automotive delivered car and one of the first things I did was contact Joel Rosen. He confirmed it wasn't prepped by Motion. This site and CRG represent the authority on COPO's and our goal is maintain our integrity. A lot of time and effort goes into verifying and maintaining our COPO Registry.

First week of 9561 production, Baldwin didn't know about COPO's yet, neither did Motion. And the body # is normal production, as noted above by Dave, DW31S.
I have a document that states this car was sold by Brahms Chev in NJ and they installed a 427. Not sure of the validity of the doc. Firewall - L BLU = light blue

You never thought that the Yenko cars had the COPO 9737 and that they had to wait for special parts before they could assemble them. Other dealers who only ordered COPO 9561 went through the process a little faster

If no cowl induction from factory, then not a COPO and a BE coded rear dated to the car would also be helpful to see. As I mentioned, it was most likely a X22 L-78 equipped car and then had a 427 transplant.
If it was the same orange SS RS car in the Super Car magazine article that Marty wrote, then Motion did the transplant. If shipping records show it was delivered to Baldwin, then good chance it is a BM car, but more history and research is needed.
