Re: Possible COPO on ebay
I thought i was thing of EVERYONE on this one. Some of you on this board complain that you do not get a chance at rare cars like this because some of us on this board keep that info to ourselves. Now someone like me gives everone a chance to get a possible COPO and someone like you complains? Its a no win situation. And yes, i thought the seller had a right to know that his car may be a possible COPO. There are alot of us on this board that are here to help people out. Answer questions pertaing to Supercars. Thats what this hobby should be about. Not personal gain $$.

Re: Possible COPO on ebay
Leo,
Sorry to have put a negative turn on your otherwise good natured and well intended post. Pretty naive of me to hope that no one else noticed the big block heater cover, X44, master cylinder, and other stuff that points this car to being a possible COPO. For me its not about greed, its about being able to justify the purchase. Obviously, risking $5K is alot easier than risking $20+K, especially for a car like this that needs a ton of work. Sorry if I offended you! Mike |

Re: Possible COPO on ebay
I think the point was that broadcasting this and letting the cat-out-of-the-bag may put the car out of reach of the ordinary Joe that would like to have it. A guy that would do his own work, etc...
This will probably go to a "more money than sense" guy regardless of your post anyway; someone that can gamble on what he is or isn't getting, and pay more than it's worth in order to take the car from others that may have limited funding. Don't get me wrong-- I'm not complaining. That's life, that's business, that's the way it goes. Being originally from Ohio, rare cars could be had in dilapidated condidion all over the place-- Not all that uncommon. I've posted about the cars I passed up and/or personally witnessed being destroyed before. Because of the internet, the days of barn finds or diamonds in the rough are over. I've said it before, and I'll say it again-- Clones, clones... Who can blame people? And maybe the Honda fart-pipe kids are all-right after all-- They just want what they can't afford, and do hot-rodding with what they have to work with. I guarantee if Civic hatchbacks were more expensive that complete POS, terd-with-corns-in-it basket case F-bodies, they'd be figuring out how to weld and get parts for the '69. Just my $.02... Peace out. |

One question I have, has anybody seen a picture of the cowl induction piercing? Reason I ask is because I wonder were he ran the plumbing for those monster gauges? Obviously not through the factory auto speedo hole because it still has a plug in it. Would like to see the hole they went through and the cowl induction piercing. Rick H. p.s. Still think it will not sell. To much interest. [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Possible COPO on ebay
Ebay gets scanned daily by lots of people.
This site has nothing to do with any auction ending early, IMHO. |
