Re: Seeking some additional knowledge
Back in about 1987 Mark Meekins did an article on Raymond Hurst's COPO Chevelle in his NCOA magazine. It sounded like these cars were new news to Mark. I think he knew about the Yenko cars but not the straight COPO units. Apparently the dealer that sold this car new also sold a ZL1 Camaro and three more COPO Chevelles. This was probably somewhere in the Campton, Kentucky area. Any ideas what dealer this might have been?
In March 1988 MuscleCars magazine, Jim Koscs did an article on Grady Burch's COPO 9566AA Chevelle. In this article he mentions a figure of about 120 COPO Chevelles being built. Apparently there were at least a couple of COPO Chevelles sold new in the Cleveland area. More food for thought. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
