That was Kim, not only as a hoot to be around, but became serious in the legendary Fred Gibb’s involvement with Chevrolet hi-performance.

In post #48 you posted a picture of a Grecian Green Nova that I believe he had ties with as owner. Dennis & Annie Hartweg, another important part of the Gibb legacy, would proudly purchase that car to represent the Gibb Chevrolet Dealership in its history of the COPO Novas.

Below, is another picture of the beautifully restored Grecian Green Nova, 1 of 10 in that color.

This picture is of the former Kim Howies Dick Harrell/Fred Gibb 427 COPO Nova.

I believe Dennis and Annie also owned this one. I think it is now in the hands of Kevin Suydam.

You are correct, Rick! Thanks for the reminder!

The number 50 Fathom Blue Nova finds its way back to LaHarpe, IL from where the Fred Gibb 68 SS COPO Novas were ordered and received the first 2 weeks of July 1968. Helen Gibb displayed & attended many shows that would draw attention where it was displayed.

WOW is that cool!!!! Thanks for posting

A clipping of Fred Gibb and racing of the Nova. T. L. Walker is shown with a 427 Nova, however in noticing it has stainless window & door trim, this feature wasn’t a part of the original feature of the Gibb COPO Novas?

This card displays only a small part of the enthusiasm Dennis displayed by by growing up around Fred Gibb Chevrolet.

Just a small portion of our showroom at our shop that Annie Hartweg and I dedicated to Dennis and his collection of memorabilia and memories.

----Thanks, Rick! I didn't know about your collection. So very cool!....Bill S
