Someone posted this one in a thread last week but don't think anything was discussed?.

May even be a real car but if it was, would it be best advertising it w/ no pics of tags or docs and stating things like;

AS BEAUTIFUL AS, OR THE MOST BEAUTIFUL!
1969 COPO CAMARO, IN THE WORLD, PERIOD!

NUMBERS MATCHING, TOP TO BOTTOM & FRONT TO BACK

427/425...M22

**PROTECTO PLATE, BUILT SHEET & WINDOW STICKER**

FRESH COMPLETION OF A THREE YEAR "EXTENSIVE" RESTORATION

"UNDERSTAND!, YOU ARE VIEWING A BRAND NEW 1969 COPO CAMARO

NOT A PRO TOURING, RETRO, WHAT EVER, BLA, BLA, BLA!

THE PICTURES WILL TELL THE WHOLE STORY

I AM NOT GOING TO WASTE ANYONES TIME WITH LENGTHLY DESCRIPTIONS

I saw that this AM. I love the lengthy description comment. I guess his "numbers matching" comment means the drivetrain is original to the car.

While it might be a real car, when someone isn't forthcoming in the listing, I become skeptical.

If you call or email the owner he'll send you pics of the documentation. I've seen them, but don't feel right about posting his pics. Wonder why he didn't show them in his ad https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Jude,
Other than a few stickers on the car, I don't see anything about it being a "Nickey" COPO?

Stefano, That's what I thought too. Call him & ask for pics of the documentation & he'll send you the buildsheet & window sticker. I'm no expert, but they could be real...or they could be made up. Worth a look at least https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Stefano, I was under the impression that Nickey only sold conversions in 69. Did they sell any COPOs?

Re: Nickey Copo on ebay
 
There have been no confirmed COPO L72s sold out of Nickey, which I am aware of. We have heard stories that a few may have been ordered late in the model year, but the Hi-Performance Dept. was busy making money selling Conversions.

Based on the copies of documents, pertinent components, dates and casting numbers , as well as other factors, submitted to us, for our review. This Camaro will not be included in the Nickey Registry, Inc. at this time.

I'll add that buyer beware on this one. Docs are not originals and I didn't like the stamps, IMO. Might be a nice car, but ...

I know the gentleman who owns this Camaro. I'm sure his ebay ad is meant tongue-in-cheek. He's been building this Camaro for a long time and has a ton of money in it. I would love to own this car and I'm on the fence right now. You couldn't do the car for what he's looking to get. FYI, Ed https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif
