Nice car who knows if it is real, like anything due diligence and read the fine print.

Although my Chevelle doesn't have the original paint, we know it was repainted sometime before 1977. Every so often I have someone say that I should have it painted but mostly everyone wants it left just the way it is!

Plus, I told Dan, who's quite a bit bigger than me, [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img] that I wouldn't paint it.....that was part of the agreement. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

In other words......leave them alone if at all possible. IMO

This car is still in Columbus, and I doubt that it will change hands soon. Less than 10k on the clock, all original and not-restored 2nd owner car. The story that the original owner told was that the car wasn't ordered with the blue interior, and the guy that ordered it refused delivery, so he saw it and bought it off the lot. It also has a rear speaker, which I have never seen on any other COPO.
