Title: Have ya ever traded a muscle car for another muscle car?(these guys did a 3 way)
Post by: BULLITT65 on September 12, 2018, 11:04:48 PM

So I was searching around the internet for some Stewart Warner info and ran across this story on the 69 BB COPO.

Great story, and funny to read about a 3 way trade that was pulled off.

Austin if you're not familiar with the car, there's a great thread about Grady's COPO over at Yenko.net - awesome workmanship and attention to detail by m22mike. URL is https://www.yenko.net/forum/showthread.php?t=140219
Car was also featured in, and on the cover of, Muscle Car Review back in December 2017.

You're welcome Mike; that Day 2 car is just so right, in every way.

To answer your original question, Have I ever traded a muscle car for another muscle car...   YES!   :)    I have done it twice, 1)  in 1976 I traded a blue/white '68 Z28 for the orange/black '69 Z28 I still own, and around 1981 I traded a '75 Monza (V8-4 sp) for a '70 Z28 (orange/white).  Never done a three way though not even a three anything!  :)

Well 68 for a 69 could be considered even , depending on condition, but I would say you did well with the Monza for a 70 Z. The 70 Z/28 have shown to have a strong market as of late.

My friend traded his 67 Z/28, for a 68 road runner, (spring 1970)One of his biggest regrets. Must be other guys out there that traded cars back in the day
