Yenko Clone appreciation...or not?

If I'm not mistaken the price on the Lemans Blue COPO in the last link is in the $115-125 range.

----I believe the 67 white Z/28 pictured on the Beannies sight came thru Classic Motors back in the late 70s. We bought it complete and in very decent condition in Ohio. It was owned by a guy that owned a junkyard......Bill S

They're asking $165k for the LB COPO... what's it worth?
Nice patina under the hood! Anyone know this car?

The LB car is here in Columbus, but I'm not familiar with the car.
Not only is there no price listed, but I don't see a trim tag on the fire wall. Very curious. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

No one out there has a COPO resotration project to sell Scottrods?? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

I only bring up value to put the project in perspective. You are going to invest your time, effort and $$$ into a vehicle which will not have a value equal to all of the work put into it in the end. It sure seems like there are many very nice tribute cars out there that could be purchased for $45k and probably less if the seller had to sell the car in a short amount of time. Does not seem like your work would be (and I know $$$ is not your objective in building this car)financially rewarded.

Why not put your time, effort and $$$$ into something that will have a true collector car value when you are finished? How about an original 396/375 with a day 2 look?

What would be the going cost of a real COPO restoration project car?? ANyone know?? Might be well worth the investment! Just my $0.02.....
