All show the same Vin 124379N674866


Both Vins of the linked cars are listed in their auctions and the same as above..

The eBay Vin is not listed but the Vin of the documents shown in the auction are again this same Vin..

Just a thought...

I have an 08C 124379N X44 car (NON-COPO).

This above GOLD car is just over 1900 units after my VIN.

The trim tag numbers on the above GOLD car are around 4100+ units apart, after mine.

Nice Looking Car, though!!!

First ad also says purchased from the original owner who bought it new in Calif. POP on ebay shows original purchase living at 1853 Burwell in Louiseville KY. I suspect a non-existent address.

1853 Burwell Ave
Louisville, KY 40210-1938

According to what I found, it's a good address!

I would be interested to see where you got that information. Zillow.com shows the closest match as 1835 Burwell.

Are you sure it is a residential address?

The eBay auction ended w/ high bid @ $98,100.00 without meeting reserve..
Pretty strong money for a clone especially in the market of late so if the bids are genuine, it's doubtful the high bidders knew it's not an original car and the docs bs?.

This story certainly isn't over yet...I'm sure we'll see this car again!.

1853 Burwell is not a residential address. You can mapquest and get directions, but mapquest will take you to a non-existant address, just putting you in the same hundred block.

My guess is that Charles Rotell is also non-existant.

Guy's this car is going to auction next week about 1 hr from me , so I think I'll go up and see, but is the final verdict "Re-Creation " ? It sure appears to me that it is , and it's even had the TH400 swapped out for an M22 , ..same VIN 674866 ???? very strange listing, as their sure leaving the impression that this is a "Real COPO" !!! A few friends were telling me about the car today , and I though if anybody knows, it the SYC guys ! So Real or Clone ? Thx Bob

It was sold at a earlier auction as a clone so assume it is a clone. The attorneys will make money with this one. Has anyone informed the auction house that it was sold at auction as a clone ?
