Charley helped the owner with a suggested price...I am asking for a firm
price because there are people interested. The car is real no doubt and kuddos to the owner
But in the end we have a reissued vin...with no drivetrain ... and car may need a donor due to the
pro street tubbing. My consideration is only based on photo info provided. There is a considerable
amount of work needed on a car worth saving GLWS

No Don...I would put it in day 2 condition ...take it to the Reunion and other dragstrips and treat it like they did when they were sold new. That car in its condition would have more fun at the track than being restored and sitting in someone's garage. Even if this car was restored it is not a tier 1 car due to what I mentioned above. It won't command the $$ that tier 1 Yenkos do. I would enjoy asking myself ....do I take the Copo or Yenko to the dragstrip today.

Exactly

Hopefully pics will post today. I'd like to make sure that most of the original 616431 is still present &amp; why the replacement VIN? I seem to remember a long, drawn out discussion that involved a car with an upper cowl VIN stamp that didn't match the VIN tag (actually the opposite of this car which has no VIN tag &amp; the TT is off the car). It's important to know how much of the car (beyond the heater box area &amp; TT)is actually 616431. I'm sure that by now someone knowledgeable has examined the car.

That car would look so cool if painted Lemans Blue and striped ...then some serious track time like Tom Clary does with his Deuce

I agree - but then again - any LB '69 Camaro with Yenko stripes would look the same. As far as we know, this car only has a few days of title history as #616431. Certainly Craig hasn't altered anything, but he just bought it. The most $$ for Craig to get for it would be to have an expert certify it as having original stamps in place &amp; write a report on the current condition of the body. Colonial Chev is in VA - odd to see it show up in CA without a history. Maybe Craig bought it from someone back east??? Gotta hear more from him.

[COPO CARTEL]

True Bergy. Title search would help. Especially since it's been bought so recent. Even in Virginia and nearby states

I would be worried that the vin is out there somewhere and will show up on another body and then there'll be civil litigation as to who owns what. Someone might have thought that the tubbed car was too tough to fix and went the easy rebody route.
