What part did Robert’s play? Was it metal fab, taking the car apart, smoothing? We get the cars from SCW without a motor, just basically body on frame. We take the body off the frame, we restore everything, even sourcing parts sometimes. From welding panels in, to the final sanding / buffing. We restore the rear ends even… this car has been here about 2 years to get it 100% perfect. We can do them in about a year, but we were pretty busy this year and had to stop working on it for a little while to catch up with the collision part of the business. > [@I'm Trying To Blame New Era Performance For Blowing Up My Tranny...](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/im-trying-to-blame-new-era-performance-for-blowing-up-my-tranny/34195/114): > > yea that’s what I was thinking/hoping… COPO cars just don’t appear every day. We have done a good deal of them, my dad has a Cortez Silver 69 COPO, I love it, no stripes, nothing, plain silver. Its definatly an investment. > [@04VDubGLI18T"](#): > > Completely numbers matching car? That’d be one heck of a find if so. I don’t know the background on it, but damn. Looks good. My personal favorite is still probably 69 Yenkos though ;). My dad had a frame off resto’d 69 Z28 RS. The only thing that wasn’t correct on it was the glass. The thing was ridiculous - all parts were NOS or originals and it was even taken to the point of having the markings from the assembly line (on the firewall and a couple other places) redone. They even left the stickers on the springs as they would have in 69 and stuff. It’s out west now and last I heard I think it sold for like 68k - much more than he got out of it :(. Muscle cars that are restored properly are seeming to be the best investment anymore. I would love to see this one completed. Yes, this car is 100% all matching numbers. We have done a gold 69 Yenko down here that was something crazy like 1 of 6 in that color or something, I cant remember the exact numbers. Your right about the parts, all parts on this car are NOS, same with all the stickers, etc… thats what makes them worth all the $$. This car is worth upwards of $250,000. Next on the chopping block after this car is completely done, is a 1969 Mustang Boss 429 worth $400,000!!! We have never done a Ford before, but it should go well. The owner of the Boss is from Colorado. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/tripple-black-copo-painted/194688)._
