Yes that car has been discussed here before on another thread. Yes it's in Canada-Winnipeg I think-and was originally an auto. Vin is 124379N620192 out of Baldwin NY. Not a "Motion" conversion car just a COPO that was sold out of there. It's in the registry here just above the 50th ZL1 car in the list.

Anyone know if the Baldwin COPO sold ?
|
Ya it did sell to some guy up in B.C. Canada
|
That's interesting - a Baldwin Chevrolet COPO. I asked Joel Rosen why he didn't take advantage of the COPO program in 1969 - why was he still converting L78s into L72s. He told me he had no idea the program existed.

And they were ordered early. I think there were at least 10 COPOs ordered by Baldwin Motion. |
It's just Baldwin Auto,not Baldwin Motion,which was Joel Rosens' separate speed shop where he did the modifying.
|
Okay. Ordered by Joel Rosen through Baldwin Auto.

Yes she was Glacier Blue when she left the plant but was painted Orange and had Passionate Persimmons written along side of it.
But before the auto show it was painted orange again but with black Hockey stick. You can look at the hockey stick close to the bumper. She also have Brooklyn Wild Pumpkin, Heavy, Heavys Camaro. NHRA Champion written that shows through the paint. I have pictures when they painted it and it also shows Pats Speed Center written in Gold. I have talked to Martyn Schoor. |

I was going to copy what was said on FB but it seems to have been removed. I informed him about the Camaron and I told him he could check it out with Joel Rosen and he didnt have to say anything to me about the result.
Martyn is a member here so he might be able to comment |

Ive talked to Joel Rosen and he wanted me to wait until the Pandemic is over.
Dan Palchanes told me before he disappeared that I had the BM Demo - Brooklyn Heavys Camaro. He spend some time with Rufus Boyd before he passed away. Also Heavy told Dan that it was a COPO. |

If I had to guess. Joel wanted it to have some psychedelic paint so it would stand out at the NY auto show. It also has numbers painted all over it together with Passion Persimmon. He probably dident like it as it turned out. So they painted it Orange again but with D90 stripes

In the older photo above it looks like the marker lights were painted orange. Also appears the stripe from the auto show passed through the fender emblem where now it doesn't and of course the stinger stripe is now gone. I assume the car has been painted orange again since the auto show photo?
|
Look again at the old Pictures.
And you can see numbers and letters. This Camaro have been painted multi times. When Heavy had it they painted it a couple times a year |
She had Stinger Hood at NY Auto Show.
And when Heavy bought her it got Stinger Hood |
Just so I am understanding you correctly. This car was originally a COPO ordered by Baldwin and then converted by Motion or was a 396 car ordered by Baldwin and then converted by Motion? Sorry if I am dense just wanna make sure I am understanding the history of the car.

Ordered COPO 9561 converted to SS427 Phase lll
