Re: 1971 COPO Corvette on ebay (71stingray454)
as far as i know you could order any combination of interior and exterior colors just that some were recommended. i think you can even do that on the C-5s now. i have ordered corvttes with even non std colors and had no problem. things are different at the bowling green plant than they were at st louis where you get just about anything you wanted. :chevy

Looks like a decent car, but not enough pics to tell. No pics of interior, and only outside pics of the front.
I would not pay anymore for this one because of red interior.
A COPO car will need papers of documentation and would be special if ordered for John Wayne, Harley Earl, or Zora's wife Elffie.
Now, that would be some rare COPO'S

Most people see COPO and thing monster engine. But COPO is any non-standard option. This is just a non-recommended color combo. But I do think that it may look nice. Would have to see it first. As was said above, I would not pay extra for the red interior.

If it was exported to Canada, go here, submit the VIN, pay about $30.00US, and find out exactly what the vehicle was. Believe me, this is a great service. And money well spent.

Looks to be a nice vette with some nice options :yesnod: Such as rear defrogger. I'd think that red interior would look good with Steel Cities Gray, but I'd have to see it first. I wouldn't pay any more for the car just because it was a COPO car tho
