Re: S. Sandlin's Former RS COPO
Yes we Vintage Certified the car in 2004. The car did achieve our Legend award. The car has complete original drivetrain. The owner should have the judging sheets I would contact him. If he's agreeable I can release them as well. There aren't too many COPO's in this condition. I will say over the years the many owners attempted to enhance its condition.

Re: S. Sandlin's Former RS COPO
For that kind of money, I would have to have it re-certified. Many things could have happened to that paint, if its had more than one care taker since judging. If something happens to a car (storage, in and off trailers, etc), you never know if it was made to look like the original survivor state, and if that is the case, you made a big mistake if found later. I think running this car back through judging, would cover that base for me, for that kind of money.
It is a car that anyone would like to have, no doubt.
