Re: Dave's New COPO
Here are a few more from Stuebinville,
Doug Perry with the original owner. It looks like Doug is heaving a sigh of relief that he didn't drive that rollback three hours for nothing.  The original owner got behind the wheel one last time before hauling it back to Columbus.  The original motor was swept off a track early on, but this is a rat that can be brought back to life. Check out that cool can, looks like it was borrowed from a still.  Good bye Stuebinville, Hello Columbus.

Re: Dave's New COPO
Dave and Doug stopped by the Bob McDorman show last night before stashing it in the Batcave. Here are a few more shot that I took, with a little help from Doug. I've known Dave for a long time, and he looked like a proud poppa.
 Believe it when I tell you, Doug was just as excited as Dave. He can't wait to start taking parts off this car.

Re: Dave's New COPO
A few more...
Looking in from the back window.  It's an X44 car, but with a deluxe interior.   View from the cockpit.

Re: Dave's New COPO
More...
The paint job is first class, for 1970. With a little love and a lot of buffing, this hood will shine.   Last one, the name says it all.   If I get the All Access Pass to the Batcave, I'll keep everyone posted on the project. When this thing is done, look out!

Re: Dave's New COPO
Hello everyone,
Thanks for checking out my NEW "old race car". I would like to thank Doug Perry for hooking me up with this one, he is the go to guy if your looking for these rare cars, especially the history on them. With Doug's "CSI" tactics we virtually knew all the history on this car before we got to the auction , and that was in a matter of days. Thanks again Doug. I would also like to thank the original owner whom we met at the estate auction (2nd owner died), His name is Doug E. ,a great guy and he will obviously be a wealth of knowlege on the car since it remains almost 100% as he built it back in 1970. I will have the car "RACE READY" at next years SCR and hope to have him there to meet everyone and let him take it down the track. He also has video of the car back in the day that I would love to share with all of you , I will see what I can do on that. Dave

Re: Dave's New COPO
I love it when a good plan comes together and it found a great home with Dave. Now give it a good wax job, go through the motor and get ready for next years reunion so you can slam your own gears... Mark
