Was it a deal or not, that's the $137,000 question. Well, we have to answer a few questions first. 1. Who were the previous owner(s)? 2. Who found the car? 3. Where did it come from? 4. How was it found? 5. Who restored it? 6. Who owned it after the restoration? Answer these questions and the puzzle is solved. Who cares about the accolades. A CARS HISTORY NEVER LIES! Also keep in mind, if it was to be judged by a real judge, would it end up at 700 pts. or a 1000 pts. That "small difference" can mean a PILE of money! In other words, supply this info. and maybe the buyer got a deal or scammed. Supply a VIN number and the real story will come out.....it always does. [/ QUOTE ] Good point. The car was restored by Matt Langford 6 years ago. Do a search here on the cars that this guy has been associated with and you'll quickly understand why it went so cheap.

Was this the car that sold? Note it was listed for sale at $250k:
Extremely rare RS CoPo Camaro. VIN 124379N640809. Fathom Green over Black interior. Documented by GM Canada twice, CoPo connection, Ontario owner's records and by the GM Technicians Guild. Immaculate condition in every respect. The best CoPo Camaro available anywhere. $250,000. This 1969 CoPo Camaro, ordered as a Central Office Production Option number 9561, was ordered by Chevrolet Dealer number 95517 - Chevy Yonge Ltd. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada and was shipped from the Norwood, Ohio Camaro plant on May 8, 1969. It was ordered with the extremely rare Z22 RS package that has been documented by GM of Canada on two separate occassions as well as by Edward Cunneen of the CoPo Connection, a historical society for these rare Camaros. This car was restored to a fastidious degree by Dave Mattina and Matt Langford of Ontario, Canada. Their sole business was the restoration of original condition, Canadian delivery Camaros. This car was highlighted by the GM Technicians Guild as part of the 2000 GM National Champions Award. GM has confirmed that this car is an RS CoPo. It was fitted with the L72 427 cid, 425 hp, 460 lb ft engine, M-22 "Rock Crusher" 4 speed transmission, 12 bolt posi-traction, heat treated gear rear end, Rally wheels, Rally Sport Package, spoilers and soft front bumper. Every significant number on the car matches the VIN and the GM supplied documentation. This car is for a serious muscle car collector who wants a unique CoPo Camaro. Only some of the Yenko cars are more sought after than a documented RS CoPo. In terms of condition, there may be none better anywhere. This car is fastidiously restored and in perfect, better than showroom condition. http://www.vintageracingservices.com...amp;gallery=23 |

The black hemu cuda had options like the billboards and rubber bumper added but a great price. I was high bidder at 75K on a 440 sixpack roadrunner convert and all of a sudden they went to 76K and I never had a chance to bid that I could tell and someone else got it for 76K.
