Equipment
COPO L72 427, power brakes, 4.10 Positraction axle, SS wheels with Firestone Wide Oval tires, bucket seats, console, radio delete, from the Tiegs collection.
Condition
Good paint with some minor swirling to the finish. Panel alignment is excellent as is the brightwork. The engine compartment and underbody are fully restored and present very well and the interior has no wear. A beautiful restoration with little use.
Market commentary
Exceptionally rare, but lesser known than the COPO Camaros, the COPO Chevelles pop up once every couple years. This year at Barrett-Jackson there was a pair. This orange example was handsome enough, but sold slightly under its condition appropriate value. It was sold at Russo and Steele Scottsdale in 2011 for $26,400, a result that defies understanding.
