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
Was this Melbourne Florida? Or Naples area?

To the buyer of the gold car and this may be a NO NO question if so don’t answer it
What made you go in so big on the gold car vs the others ? Was it the race history?

My personal preference has always been race history just my thing. I let a convertible go for race history. In the road race world race history is gold.

Reason I ask is they are all such beautiful and special cars but there was clearly a huge difference in price between them
