Re: Grady Burch's Day 2 COPO Camaro
I actually came here to see the story on Grady's 67 RS/SS, and was shocked to see this car as well!
That was quite an enjoyable hour reading through these 14 pages and viewing the progress of this...

Re: Launch RPM for a 4 Speed?

Re: Launch RPM for a 4 Speed?
Hmmm, lots of good info to digest here.
To answer a few questions... MPH was 102 - 104 every time. 60 foot time was between 2.10 and 2.20.
My brother tried one pass, launched it at 4000... and...

Launch RPM for a 4 Speed?
So I finally got Ribbon COPO out to the strip this past weekend (first time I've ever drove a stick down the strip), and was disappointed with 4 passes all around 13.70. I was running slicks, and it...

Re: Arby's North Canton, Oh
Hi Mike,
Where exactly is this, and what time does it start? Every Sunday?
Looks like a good show, and good way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Probably not too bad of a drive from Twinsburg.

Re: What was your first car????
Too funny, I was about to post that I bet I would be the only one who had a 69 Impala as my first, but I was beat to it!
I found some pics last night that I have to scan.
I agree with you......

Re: Zl-1 Malibu finished
Awesome idea and incredible work, Al. I wonder why a ZL-1 never made it into a Chevelle, at least you get to experience it first hand now.
I can't believe how quick you turned this around, you...

Re: Just found 69 Chevelle SS396 Post Sedan
Hi Rick,
Very nice car... and very well bought... congrats!
I never realized the post sedans still have the wing windows in the front doors like the 68's... do all posts have the 300 interior?...

Re: All Hemi Reunion, Salem Ohio
Thanks for all the pics, Mike.
My brother attended this, and told me this seemed like the Woodstock of Hemi gatherings. Seeing this thread, I think I may agree with him!

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
Its been a while, but I've finally had time to get her up in the air to snap a pic of the tube stamp.
Not sure how clear the pic is, but it appears to be KQ 0518B... which I assume means May 18th?...

Advice on getting information from a former owner
I think many of you already know some of the story behind Ribbon COPO... and the fact that we have been in touch with every owner since 1970. The one who owned it from 1970-1978 immediately told us...

I agree that this will remain a day 2 car. I personally never had the urge to find the original exhaust manifolds, AIR pump, carb, ignition, etc. to make a car "original".
