Re: Cedar Rapids COPO ?
 

Do you have the car, or are you looking for it? I don't remember that car, but there was/maybe still is, one setting in a junk yard in Wis not to far from Dubuque.
Same yard as the infamous Yenko dirt track Chevelle.

Thanks for the response. I have it sitting in the garage here... in the process of restoring it, just trying to find some history before any traces that may be left disappear.

Cedar Rapids was insane back then. Every stop light was a drag race. All makes and models. ist ave Plymouth had 3 transport loads of AAR Cudas. Mr G's speed shop had 2 locations if I remember correctly.

Now they have speed cameras, and decibel meters. If you fart to loud you get a ticket.

I used to have a 70 Road Runner, 383 4-speed car, that came from 1st Avenue.

lol... that sounds like it was fun back in the day. Makes sense that my '68 would have fit right into that scene.

My L78 Nova was purchased out of Rapids Chevrolet in April 1969. I'm sure it was involved is some of that street racing. Fortunately its still all together.
