Default Old Pic

Continuing to track previous ownership of the COPO.

I received these pics this week from a previous owner. Here she is badged up as a Pro Street Z/28! These are from the early 90's.

Default QC Deal

I went to a local swap meet here in Cincinnati and I was able to get a couple of original Queen City decals. Still tracking previous owner history and I'm back to 1973! Also collecting parts needed for a few passes at SCR this Summer.

Funny how back in the day, Z/28 badges were added to make it cool. What could be cooler than a factory 427?

Hi folks,

Been awhile since I've posted an update. Good progress on the rear suspension changes and the motor clean up.

New cam, springs, and a freshened up set of 840 heads. The block appears to be a 427/390 hr. from 1968. Steel crank and 7/8 dimple rods and cast pistons. Big thanks to Dave McGaffee for assembling the motor. Going to pick it up this weekend.

Sammy hooked me up with some 70's Lakewood bars and I decided to go with the H/O powder coated drums.

Being a rookie I have made a few mistakes (like forgetting the rubber pads that go under the leaf springs... Grrr.) but it's coming together!
