Default Any Unrestored Supercars left?

It seems to me that most supercars out there are already restored... and more are being disassembled and restored everyday. I'd like to get my hands on a neat unrestored supercar that I can preserve and enjoy in its original condition for years to come and show off at SCR, etc.

Given that I intend to drive it, I'm looking for a survivor that is still relatively intact and untouched that retains most of its original components, paint and patina. As much as I'd like to find an unrestored supercar that is still in pristine condition, I realize that 40 year old lacquer paint gets cracked, checked, faded and most cars will have some rust. The car does not have to be running, but I intend to get it back to running/driving.

My preference is to find a REAL original COPO or dealer converted 427 car (Dana, Yenko, Baldwin, Berger, Harrell, Nickey, or any other dealer, etc.) in any condition. I will also pay a reasonable finders fee for help finding a suitable car. Thanks in advance for your help.

I can be reached by phone or text at 403-803-3879 or emailed at [email protected]

Well, I was quick on the draw trying to save and preserve that Dick Harrell COPO Nova, but I got beat.

I'm still in the market... despite our turbulent stock market. Please keep me in mind guys and gals, and thanks for the calls so far!

Not yet.

I appreciate all the leads on cars needing restoration, but I'm really looking for an original unrestored car that can be preserved without restoring. I'm patiently waiting for the right one to come along. Thanks!

Hey, whats with all the recent competition???

I started my search because it seemed everyone was busy restoring those few remaining survivors, so I wanted to preserve one for myself... now everyone seems to be looking for cars with original paint?

I'm still looking for the right unrestored supercar survivor, so please keep me in mind guys and gals.
Thanks
