Super car workshop in Latrobe, PA. I have no personal experience with them but have seen some nice work.

Welcome! Can you tell us about your COPO?

I agree, take your car to Super Car Workshop. They are very knowledgeable and do great work!

SCW does great work, but it's out of the price range of many....

So are COPO's 

[BRG Z28]

I have seen many COPO's that were done by SCW. They do great work. If you want your car done right; you need have it done by somewhere that has experience with COPO's.

Why? What is different?

That was my thought as well.....  ?

While SCW has a great reputation I would think the COPO,s as well as the Z28,s have been researched enough that other shops that do good work could handle the job. The specific parts and dates are well known. Finding them might be the challenge.

One of the nicest COPO restorations I have seen. Done by a hobbyist working out of his garage.

Yep, a dedicated hobbyist can do awesome work too, if they know what to do.

This was painted in lacquer 30 years ago by a friend in a 2-car garage. He also did the body work. All GM back then; no repro.
