Default Re: The mistery COPO car

I just talked to Gary the second owner and he gave me the original manual that came with the car .He traded a ELcameno for it and $2500 cash in 1969 .He confermed that it was equipt with all the Z28 and COPO parts when he bought it as a used car at the GM Dealer 14 Miles from here .The car was Fathom green with white tripes on the hood and trunk .

Did the owner's manual come with the warranty manual? That will answer alot of questions.

George you are saying he bought it as a used car from the GM dealer 14 miles from here. Is that 14 miles from someplace in Alberta or are you talkig about some other place?

Garry the second owner bought it from Houlder Automotive GM Dealer in Grimshaw AB .in 1969 when the original owner Peitro Ghiso left it there for sale when he went back to Italy .He only changed the carburetor .Every thing else was on the car when he bought it . Houlders are still in buisness in Grimshaw .I have since got the Holly 800 for it . The 1969 Camaro Chevelle and Nova owners book had nothing writen on it other then Garry put his name on it when he bought it .He had the motor blue printed and balanced when he was racing it in Edmonton .He said he blew two clutches on the track racing
