Neat thread. I love all the old pics of the car. Easy to see how these cars got lost over the years with the little changes.

This is great! Finding the car is pretty lucky in itself. All the friendly past owners that saved and offered pictures and info is awesome!

Congrats,

Jason

Man, this car needs to look just like this picture. This car spent almost zero time as showroom delivered. It's existence has been a race car. It's provenence is both COPO,. and race. It's like the Vitar COPO. A piece of GM, and racing history.
Very cool Brent!

Thread of the year I'd restore it just like this. </div></div> Untubed and just like this. Why showroom stock when it does not have its original drive train. It will always be a non-numbers race car IMO. Way more credibility like this than a boring non matching lawn ornament.

Brent,

The pics and the paint scheme are outstanding! Do you know if the car was delivered with the rear tail panel painted the dark color (black)? Or was that done afterwards?

Great stuff!!!!

Elon
