2017 Amelia Island
 
As some of you know from the recent thread in the lounge section, "Camaros at Amelia Island" Grady was invited to be part of the Camaro display with the Brown COPO car. He is not back home yet and will have more on the show later, and pictures. I did not go with him, some family stuff here.
The car was awarded a Red ribbon, "Award of distinction"
Here is one teaser shot of Grady coming to the show field.

mockingbird812 03-14-2017 07:03 PM

Good golly, that just looks fine and FINE!

markinnaples 03-14-2017 07:28 PM

Whew, that Camaro is one of my absolute favorites as I'm a big BB fan, and the Day Two touches are pure perfection on it.

Postsedan 03-14-2017 07:37 PM

Sorry Mike, There's not enough room on Wayne's plane for you!

markinnaples 03-15-2017 02:58 PM

Can I share that picture? It's epic.

m22mike 03-15-2017 03:12 PM

You bet, I captured it from the Inter web myself. It is in here, Autoweek photo.

Grady's car looks fantastic and sinister! Congrats on the award, well deserved.

Kurt S 03-15-2017 05:25 PM

Great work!
My question, that noone probably can answer, is how did a dealership in the small town of Lebanon find out about COPOs?

68l30 03-15-2017 06:04 PM

Very very cool! Must have been a sight to behold, coming in making noise like only a Day Two BB Chevy can make...:3gears:

Well done Grady ...and Mike!!

Thanks Mike, and those other cars at Pebble were ridiculously cool as well.

COPO CARTEL 03-15-2017 07:57 PM

Congrats G.and M. The car would look cool at Beech Bend SCR20 on the drag strip at the starting line for a photo op !

A12pilot 03-15-2017 08:45 PM

Oh, man.....that's awesome!!! Very well deserved and couldn't have gone to anyone nicer! Nice job, men!!!:biggthumpup::biggthumpup::biggthumpup:

Great job Grady and Mike!

Steve Shauger 03-16-2017 04:55 PM

Grady, I can only imagine the looks you got when you were parking the car on the judging field. Also kudos to Mike for his big part in restoring this masterpiece!!!

We think it was ordered to race. And Lebanon and York are not that far apart. When I restored the car it was clear it was never driven in foul weather based on the condition of the sheet metal and original trim. The OE rear bumper is still on the car.

Go back to pg. 15 post #144 in this thread and read the post by "browncopo" Cliff the 4th owner of this car.

Steve, I can not begin to explain the feeling. The looks were one thing but again to be so well received was awesome. I do wish Mike could have been there to enjoy. But since Mike could not go my son Cory went with me. I don't think he will forget this trip soon, we had a blast together.

Grady

mockingbird812 03-17-2017 11:59 PM

That's what I'm talking about!!!! Bonding - it's a good thing!!!!!!!!

Saw the car finished at MCACN and it looks awesome in pictures and in person and love the "Grady" car badge on the rear pan, a real dealership badge.
Congratulations!
