1969 Chevelle

[EZ Nova]

Doug, so I wonder if Edgar's Rally Green '69 Nova SS was your old engine? It was a 427-425Hp engine I recall. But as I found out, you never know till you take them apart yourself! I know when we talked about the car YEARS ago, like 30 years, he was telling me he put a 3 piece quarter panel on the car and the car went to Motion car show. He won "something" with it. I know for a fact that the "rumored 427" in my Nova was in fact a standard bore 402! So that was a hell of a 402 the way it ran in the '69 Nova when Gordy had it.

Also remember street racing in Toronto with Proctor's Vette. Raced a blue '69 COPO Camaro and beat it pretty good. But then we were getting called out by Serge Longo and his Challenger. We wanted NOTHING to do with him and that car!!!

WE street-raced a Blue '69 COPO Camaro with a friends '73 454 Vette. Weston Finch timelines in early to mid 90's, I wonder if it was the same. We raced twice that night, beat the COPO and another Chevelle I recall, THEN the hitters came calling. Next was either Serge's Challenger or the &quot;Joe Cool&quot; '69 Camaro from Comp Auto. Needless to say, we declined both offers. LOL

The Blue COPO Camaro is still alive and intact in storage!
