Who knows, but interesting to see if this is just a blip or the start of a trend.

A few years ago there was a muscle car museum in Florida that liquidated a bunch of cars including two 69 COPO Camaros. I saw both those cars in person and while both nice, they were older restorations with a few incorrect items. One brought $280K? and the other brought over $300K. This was at a time where COPOs were bringing $150-$200K. In that case it was a blip, as the market essentially stayed right there, and is still there today.
As long as there are people willing to pay $400K+ for Yenko's, the market will stay up there. That just hasn't been the case for COPO's. 69 Z28's, now that's a whole different story
