Copo 427 Camaro Pics

[whitetop]

Here are some photos of an unrestored Copo Camaro in Eastern Ohio still in the original owners garage. Car was bought new at Heubner Chevrolet in Carrolton, Ohio. His wife was a teacher and drove the car to school in early '70's. License tags on the car are from '76-77. They are still out there hidden away.

Thanks

When i get the pictures of my COPO done i will have to try to post them. Be advised the car is not the nicest looking one out there but it was an old drag car . The orig. owner says he cant wait to see it.

Are you referring to the same car mab1969 is in his post?

[COPO CARTEL]

No....this is another car...it also resides in eastern Ohio. The car that mab is referring to is St. Clairesville/ Bellaire Ohio....those cities are very close to the river. Since Mab mentioned the road that Dale lives on ....it should be an easy find. My guess is the trailers are circling....lol. Remember what happened with the red Copo in the same direction...Van Zannis had trailers showing up.

[6969]

copo cartel, it sounds like you know where all the copo's are at. lol. do you have any information on the blue yenko Camaro that came from Bellaire / shadyside area. it was sold years ago.

[camaromb]

Yes, the blue Yenko that was under the tarp in the side yard, owner in jail and sold for $ 4,400 or so ended up with a buyer in Louisville, KY and then sold to the next owner in IL who restored the car. It was later sold to a collector in Iowa. It was the first Yenko Camaro built in '69 and sold new at Richards Chevrolet in Wheeling WV. I later found that Warren D. had the complete Yenko file on the car, I should not have passed on that car. Funny, I'm also MAB.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Kickel! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[6969]

Richards Chevrolet became king Richard Chevrolet then king Chevrolet on 16 th street in wheeling and is now robinson Chevrolet near cabelas in wheeling. do you know the name of the collector in iowa. and is warren d the original owner. I will talk to a few old timers in Bellaire to see if they have any info on the car. I was born in 1968, so I was a little to young to remember any thing back then.

So do I thanks... Notice the trophies on the roofs of the cars in the first pic.

[Plowman]

[Tracker1]

Agreed - Frost Chevrolet certainly liked to bring in the RS cars...

I saw the ad for the 69 Yenko for sale in the local freebee newspaper for $6000 and thought it was a clone or a joke..saw the car a week later at the new owners car lot..he wanted $25K

[COPO CARTEL]

I have some other photos of other cars in the Ohio area that are similar. Congrats to the owner and their family

[COPO CARTEL]

I would make sure you ask the original owner if it's ok to post photos of his car....some original owners are very sensitive and would rather be anonymous....that is from past experiences

[COPO CARTEL]

Here is the Ohio snow tire car today. Getting ready to go to the Nationals in June

[COPO CARTEL]

Sorry. It won't load

[COPO CARTEL]

Try this. Can someone rearrange the photo. Thanks http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/usergals/2015/01/full-2742-20297-image.jpg

I like that fast, bad a$$ green one in the corner!

[COPO CARTEL]

Both cars will be ready for fun this summer

[Salvatore]

There you go Mr. 4 Speed!

[COPO CARTEL]

Sammy. I hope your leg is healing fine...we hope to see you in June at Frederick Maryland. Let us know if you need anything from Ohio brought your way

[Salvatore]

getting there Doug. Thanks for the thoughts.

[ANDY M]

Doug, what happened to the rear wheels with the hub-caps in the original photo? I have seen that picture before, looked at it many times, and I just now noticed the rally wheels in front with wheel covers in the back. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif
Andy

[COPO CARTEL]

That's because it had snow tires. I have no idea where they went Andy. Reminds me of a daily driver <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif
