^ The WK41 VIN is cop for sure. The next digit, for the motor, I don't think is accurate. It says 4 but if it's a 440 it should be a U, if it's the 400 should be a P ... I think. Anyway, cool find. I think I may email the seller and tell them, what do you guys think? It's for charity. If you e-mailed the seller and told them it was an actual cop car, they would get more money for the charity. I'm sure the Penguin would want you to do the right thing, Adam.

Odd that it has earlier hubcaps. By '77, it should have had the ventilated dog dish ones.

Was just about to post about this car. Another indication is the auction photos which show chipped paint around the mirrors and door handles. Gold paint over originally white doors. And, like 58hemifury mentioned, the missing molding shows that the rest of the body was Black (as do the edges of the open hood).

Ok, I suggested to them that they should end the action and relist it properly, I also offered to help identify whether or not the car is a CHP if they are interested. We'll see what happens.

22 hours to go and at a big $455.00, I don't really think the seller cares, if you read some of the negative feedback on this organization they don't seem too honest or caring. Sorry 1baker11, when I had emailed them I didn't know anyone on the list would want this car or would be bidding on it, I was just trying to do a good deed and also possibly help keep the car out of the Demo Derby and scrapper crowd's hands.

Looks like a good deal, I don't think it will go in the thousands in that condition in the last few hours.

Wow, sold for $2313.00, guess I wasn't the only one to pick up on the CHP thing.
