Very cool car! It costs nothing to leave it the way it is and it's a personal touch by a previous owner. If you do happend to stumble on some paperwork or any part of the original drivetrain, then it might be the time to think about putting it back to original.

Bob, Congrats on a great find. Looking forward to seeing it. I will agree with Phil and Al bring it to the ACES Show in August. Grady

I still have the magazine with the writeup about Grady's COPO Chevelle black and white pictures and all. It was the first writeup on COPO Chevelles that I had seen since 1969. Even the NCOA didn't seem to know anything about these cars in those days. Both of our '69 cars were Baltimore and I didn't find build sheets in either. Fortunately, I have the GM of Canada documentation and the original bill of sale for the first car. Some people have found Baltimore build sheets so it does pay to check things out. It would be great if you did find that magical paper. It is gold in this day and age. Our Son's '69 Chevelle was red with the black vinyl top. A very sharp combination that everyone seems to love. Best of luck.

EVEAN IF YOU FIND THE BUILD SHEET I WOULD LEAVE THE PAINT ALONE IT IS PART OF THE HISTORY OF THE CAR. I LOVE THE WAY IT IT LOOKS GOOD

Wow... that does look like an awesome show, and yes, right in my backyard. The only problem is its the same weekend as the Woodward Dream Cruise, which I was considering going to. I was also half-considering towing Ribbon COPO out for Woodward, but if I have a chance to see a couple of COPOs in Westlake, I may change my plans.

Personally, I'd skip the Dream Cruise and go to the Chevelle show. Woodward is a good time, but it can be a pain if you don't have a good parking spot. If you get into the traffic, it can take hours to move only a couple of miles.

Obviously you have a passion for Chevelles and the Northern Ohio Chevelle guys put on a great show.
