Default BE COPO Rear Found

I found this cool old race rear end this week. Ladder bars, springs moved inboard, spool, etc. Still stock width. March cast, looks like an April assembly date. I am going to take some more detailed photos before I strip the paint and grease in the stamp code area.

Nice find Matt. Any chance the rear could lead to the rest of the car?

Apparently I have an eye problem. It's April cast. Looked like a March before I cleaned it.

What are your plans? Wonder who made those brake lines?

Nope, that's the way the '9' looks on a 12-bolt casting date

If I can't get the car, I'm going to sell it.

It's a 1969. Picture quality isn't the greatest.
