Hawthorne Chevrolet New Jersey
 

‘

A few old threads w/ Hawthorne Chevrolet cars but nothing of Copos from there.
Note 12/69 Ad below w/ 4x 427 Camaros also 2x 396 Pace Cars available.
Anyone know this dealer or cars they delivered, looks like they’re still in operation today.

Digging deeper, I found an old CRG thread where Dan P (RIP) mentioned a Burnished Brown Copo Hawthorne Chev had sold but that’s all I could come up Copo wise.:hmmm:
Also, here’s a link to a 2018 for sale thread here w/ a Hawthorne delivered L78 Pacer…

I'm not aware of any Hawthorne COPO's surfacing....

Thanks for that, again I couldn’t find anything of known existing cars, just Dan P’s comment that Hawthorne sold a Brown one as quote below from this CRG thread…

Thanks again good info!! Since I'm from NJ heres what I know on the known Chevrolet Dealerships that sold them in NJ. The 2 biggest were Malchom Konners in Paramus NJ and Wallace Chevrolet in Linden.Both known for Corvette Sales.I actually have a old 1969 Newspaper ad for Wallace Chevrolet advertising the 1969 Copo Camaros. Theres a Hugger Orange 4 speed 1969 COPO 427 Camaro thats never been found and a Daytona Yellow and Burnished Brown that was wrecked.Theres a original owner Frost Green with Enduro Bumper Wallace COPO 69 427 Camaro. There was a Lemans Blue Wallace COPO 427 Camaro never found.I heard there was a Silver one too.The Black Wallace COPO 1969 427 Camaro was the Dragcar.Wallace Chevrolet sold my 07A 1968 Chevy 2 Nova SS427 L88 Motion car to Fredy Calas of Elizabeth NJ. Hawthorne Chevrolet sold a Burnish Brown COPO 69 427 Camaro.Karen Chevrolet sold 6 COPO 69 427 Camaros.I think it was Surf Chevrolet that sold 1 COPO 69 427 Camaro.The Convincer II COPO 1969 Chevelle was sold out of a Chevrolet Dealership in Jersey City.I sure each sold way more then I mentioned but these are the ones I remember now because of info I have.I'm sure theres other COPO NJ Chevrolet Selling Dealerships,maybe someone can ad to this.

I believe my friend's Dusk blue with white standard interior COPO came out of Hawthorne. Has M22 4-speed and console/gauges. It has a spoiler but I think it originally did not come that way new.
