Title: 1969 Camaro copo/rs fair market value
Post by: huggerorange on December 08, 2010, 02:49:55 PM

Good morning everyone. I was hoping to gain a little insight on the current fair market value of copo camaros, specifically ones without the original drivetrains.

Earlier this year, a 1969 fathom green copo/rs camaro sold at barrett jackson in scottsdale, arizona, for $150,700.00. Assuming that is an accurate gauge for copo/rs fair market value in 2010, does anybody have an educated guess about what that same car might have sold for if, for instance, the car had non-original engine, transmission and rear-end?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Every B-J contestant has signage stating that buyers are to assume non-original drivetrain and unknown miles unless otherwise stated. I was there and have one of the info cards the owner of this car [N640809] prepared for the show. It makes no mention of drivetrain originality but does claim 46,000 miles. The car was in the main tent so it could not be closely examined. Looked nice but probably not OE drivetrain.

This car would have done better with OE drivetrain and "real" docs. It went on the block Saturday evening, prime time sellers pay a premium for.

My opinion? That's where non-Yenko L72 COPOs were. Where they are now will be determined at Scottsdale. Suddenly there are a number of them on the market.

Hi All
I just bought that car and I can confirm (after 3 of us climbed all over the entire car for a full day...Lol) it has the original drivetrain....and GM Canada docs as well. Also spoke to most of the past owners. I have the history back to 1973.

As far as value? I guess that depends on options, paperwork, color, what phase the moon is in, quality/condition of the car etc. Hard to say....it would have to be a case by case call.

Prices are all over the board right now, if the car has real verified paper, is in good colors, and has the most correct restoration you can have done, (Chicago Muscle Car Show, Legends Judging type resto) it could go 125-175
