When a COPO dies.....
Man,
Came across this today and its a bummer. I used to own this car. It was a 1970 Z28 COPO, and a #'s matching, build sheet JM certified Z28-COPO. Sold it several years back. Just came across this ad, and it's been "pro toured" with a 572ci engine. On bring a trailer https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...olet-camaro-21 https://bringatrailer.com/wp-content...?fit=940%2C627 I know it's not a "COPO" copo, but still cant believe that someone pulled the numbers engine and pro toured it. This is what it looked like when I sold it: http://davidsclassiccars.com/images/...ctor-car-1.jpg and the Build Sheet http://davidsclassiccars.com/images/...ctor-car-7.jpg Bummer..... But this America. Looks like it brought in the $90's as a Pro Tour, much more than as the original COPO 9796. Rich |
Why no black grille?
|
My worst nightmare...
|
That's a travesty IMO.
|
Absolutely brutal. I wonder what they did with the drivetrain and comfortweave...
|
Man, well, I thought I was going to see a picture of a rolled/totaled car when I read the thread title, so I guess it could be worse! Still a bummer when you think of all the NOM 2nd gens out there.
Wonder what happened to the original engine. |
Who ever changed that Z should be shot!! Everyone with a nice original car worst nightmare indeed...
|
I've seen plenty of this with Corvettes, so sad but it's the world we live in.
|
Substantial engineering went into COPO 9796 beyond just the rear spoiler.
Oh well, my car remains, and today is just a little bit more rare.:3gears: |
I mean, I'm sure there are other stockers. I really don't like Pro-Touring stuff but it's honestly not that big of a deal. Especially if the guy kept all the original parts
