Thank you. I think that's the one. At least from the same photo shoot. Was this a COPO car or just a &quot;built up&quot; 427 car?

Super John is a COPO 9561 9737 01C 52B X22.
Before it was painted Red and White it had Nickey (backward k) on it.
It was written SEE Nickey Chevrolet on the side of it.

I know what youre gonna say.
Nickey dident ordered any COPO Camaros.
I can only tell you what it says on the Camaro

You can see the top of Nickey on the top of Quarter panel.

ZL1 15 is Leatherman. Super John?

Mike

Are you saying that the Super John car was a ZL-1? I was told by one of the guys who built it that it was nothing special. Just a 69 Camaro they built into a race car.

Valerie Harrell told me that Super John Camaro and Leatherman Camaro is not the same Camaro. Looked at Draglist
