Was the car blue . I remember one at one of the car shows in the 80's

Yes, the car was a lemans blue RS, 4 speed. It was not tubbed, but wore a class winner sticker on one of the 1/4 windows. I was told the wife of the owner drove it, and they also had a vette.

There were lots of COPO Camaro models that ran at Cayuga when new. The usual colors orange, LeMans Blue, bright Green; several of those and of course silver. No RS version in any color that I can recall though. One burgundy Camaro COPO race car that may have been repainted. Black was not a popular color back then. The only picture I have is of the first COPO Camaro delivered to Belmont Chev. It was the Hugger Orange 4 speed non-RS version. The COPO was out at Cayuga to see what it would do...
