Have any pic's what the car looked like when it sold at auction?
Would have been a shame to change it from it's race look [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] |

The car was identical to the photo on the rollback when at the auction.....we inspected the car 2 weeks before the auction to verify that it was a real COPO.....BE was there....curve neck.....piercings.....no exterior badging.....BB heater box...Cowl relay .....brakes ....all the important signs were there along with 4,003 original miles

Its a crime to change it from race car to cookie cutter restoration.

This was truly a kick a$$ day 2 car to the fullest!! It was like a time capsule put away for all these years.. I'm really glad I got to see the car in person before it went away for restoration.. I would have kept the car the same with it's race history!!
Here are some shots I took of it... Myles engineering was the place for race motors in Cleveland back in the day and the Nolan Brothers were well known for their paint work!! Enjoy... Rich ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

My wife always tells me to keep my eyes on the road whenever we are traveling the "back roads" of different areas......this is the reason my head is always on a swivel looking for barns, garages, etc., etc........

I agree. I wouldn't have even washed it given what I know now.

Thanks for the pic's I do remember the story awhile back.
Again they are only this way once! There are original COPO's for sale why ruin this one? What an absolute waste! <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Mr. Chevy</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This was truly a kick a$$ day 2 car to the fullest!!
