You're driving by a house in the country, and you have to stop, put it in reverse, and slowly back up. Yep, it's the back end of a 69 Camaro sitting in a garage. There is an older lady watering the grass, and she ask, "Do you like it", of course, you reply, "yes maim,"politely. She ask if you'd like to take a closer look at it, so you pull in her driveway, and she begins to tell you sadly, how her husband recently passed, and the cars been sitting for years. "He bought it new,", she explains, and that he named her COPO girl. Now the hair on the back of your neck is standing up. Sure enough as you get closer, you see it has no rear spoiler, and dog dish hubcaps. Its blue, with blue interior, and a 4 speed. By now your hearts really beating. She tells you, that he rarely drove it, because it drank a lot of gas, then you see the odometer, its @ 22k miles. Yes its very, very dusty, and could use a waxing. You ask her if you could look under the hood, and she obliges. The engines dusty, but yes it's the 427, and it's all there. You tell her how beautiful it is, and she ask if you could do her a favor. you ask yes, what. She says, if you can tow it away, you can have it, I have the bill of sale, and it just brings back too bad memories with it sitting here, and I really would rather see someone enjoy it, because, I cant drive a manual, and besides, it just sits, and sits here. He wouldn't have wanted it that way. You then inquire. how much do you want for her? She says, "oh, I dont want any money, you'd be doing me a favor. and I think the battery's dead. Just tow it away, and it's yours." You tell her you'll be back in a couple hours, and ask if its o.k. to shut the garage door, if you know what I mean. Being the honest guy you are, you return with your truck, and trailer, and winch it on, and strap her down. You tell her, after you hand her an envelope, "I'm sorry, that I couldn't do better, but this is the best my bank would let me have." She says, "no, I couldn't take anything," but you insist, she takes the 20 grand, and you feel bad, that you couldn't do better, but she is still overjoyed. A month goes by, after hours, and hours of cleaning, replacing the fuel, lines, all fluids, rebuild kit on carburetor, and replacing the battery, after a few tries it fires up. You set the timing. and slowly back it out of your garage, let it warm up, and check the brakes, and set the tire pressure. The radio works great, and the motor is hitting a lick. Now the maiden voyage. You pull out easy, and go through first, taking it easy at first, after about 30 minutes, you stop on a long stretch of a two lane blacktop, and roll out about 10 feet, and drop the pedal, in a brutal force of fury, the rear tires start smoking, then you get some traction, wind it out, and chirp a hard second, then 3rd, and 4th. The car drives like a scalded dog. Another month goes by, and you enlist it at Mechum's auction, after having it fully documented as a 2nd owner, matching numbers, low mileage, Copo Camaro. It pulls dow $525k, which you're very happy with, because your a paycheck to paycheck kinda guy. Mechum takes their cut, and you return to the ladies house, giving her 70% of the profit, which she refuses, and agrees to half. Then you go buy a nice clone for 70k, and put the rest in savings, and put your 2 weeks notice in @ your job. It's a dream come true, and then the worst thing in the world happens. You wake up, and realize, that it was all just a dream.
Oh wow 15 plus videos on pictures of old cars you probably got off the internet some where or another , I want the story behind each car . The history of its life and what it and its owner been though . Not pictures . This is just bs lol
Perhaps even better sound to accompany this video would be the sound of a JET engine screaming at 200db (decibels) in case you don't know what db stands for! This LOUD trashy racket you used for your video is so awful that I left 10 seconds into your video.
Wow... some of the comments on here are negative, sad and troll like. I think the video is awesome and well done, thanks Count !
