Sounds like you hit pay dirt! Congratulations on the COPO with race history and a neat day 2 look that doesn't need to be fluffed. I'm looking forward to the updates.

Neat thread. I love all the old pics of the car. Easy to see how these cars got lost over the years with the little changes.

SuperNovaSS 02-27-2012 07:10 PM

Re: Brents 1969 Hugger Orange Copo Found ?
 
This is great! Finding the car is pretty lucky in itself. All the friendly past owners that saved and offered pictures and info is awesome!

Congrats,

Jason

Brent,

The pics and the paint scheme are outstanding! Do you know if the car was delivered with the rear tail panel painted the dark color (black)? Or was that done afterwards?

Great stuff!!!!

Brent.....that car looks the best in those pictures. Great paint scheme, Cragars, tires, traction bars, blacked out tail panel. IMO

If you have any way of restoring it back to that era.....DO IT!!!!

If I didn't know any better, this is another car with 15X6 wheels and slicks in the rear. Look at those baby's bulge out the side......PERFECT!!!!!

Kurt

Man, this car needs to look just like this picture. This car spent almost zero time as showroom delivered. It's existence has been a race car. It's provenence is both COPO,. and race. It's like the Vitar COPO. A piece of GM, and racing history.
Very cool Brent!
