Congrats on inheriting a fabulous car. Sometimes our enthusiasm and passion can get the best of us. In the past we have had new members join and make up fantastic stories only to find out it was a hoax. I can assure you that Camaromb is as passionate as they come and will go out of his way to help anyone and share his knowledge. Welcome to the site and again congratulations, and please share your childhood memories and stories of the car with us. My childhood memories of my father as it relates to cars is that they were only means a of traveling from point A to B and absolutely nothing more. In fact it used to annoy him that I spent some much time, money and energy on them. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Runninbear,

WOW!, I missed all the excitement! I'm glad to say I owe you an apology. I was wrong, gladly, about your car being real. With hundreds of Copo cars known and only a handful of original owner non-Yenko Copo cars that exist, this is the third original owner yellow Copo Camaro known and the second from the same dealer???!! They are all in Ohio too???!!!! Unbelievable.

With all the cars that don't really exist/stories we all have heard over the years, this car was hard to believe with so little information. Good luck, enjoy the car, it is one of the rarest that exist thats for sure. Thanks for sharing some info about the car.

Mark
