Bruce Eilenbergers RS COPO in HMM
 
Congrats, to Bruce and his very nice article in the October 2013 Hemmings Muscle Machines. We were honored to have Bruce and his COPO at the SLS two years ago...BKH https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-dsc_0040.jpg

That Camaro has to be in my top 3 favorite Camaro's of all time.

COPO and a burnished brown finish, how can you go wrong?

Love it.

Thanks guys - I haven't seen the article yet. It's been a couple of years since they did the photo shoot at my house. Thanks for posting the picture Brian! I was in great company at SLS - ZL1 on one side and 10-10 L78 on the other!

Very cool and story. It was a gutsy move gambling to buy that car, but it all worked out.
Congrats---you deserve it!!!

Re: Bruce Eilenbergers RS COPO in HMM
 
And....this past years SLS had another Burnished Brown COPO. Brow sure has a knack for finding good stuff for his get-together.

Congratulations Bruce. Great article. Very cool car.
I wish I would have gotten a picture while Bruce was loading his COPO onto his trailer. The Burnished Brown really popped in the sunlight.

Thanks Marty. Mike....I cleaned some old PMs out of my box.

Also, I just saw the magazine &amp; noticed that the car is also included among the &quot;Muscle Car of the Year&quot; finalists. If any of you don't have another favorite among the 13 finalists, I'd appreciate your vote. Go to www.hemmings.com/mmoy and vote.

Just read this article yesterday. Nice car. I remember it on Ebay!

Re: Bruce Eilenbergers RS COPO in HMM
 
Thanks again everyone &amp; don't forget to vote if you are so inclined! I made special copies of the article for my restorer and engine builder. When I dropped the copies off today, they told me that the Hemming's folks called them up to verify the facts in the article. I also sent copies to Donn (the original owner) and Bob (the former high performance manager at Ewing Chevrolet) - haven't heard if they were contacted. Hemming's obviously does their homework!

Re: Bruce Eilenbergers RS COPO in HMM
 
The results are in........ Got beat by a Ford! Oh the horror!!! It is a pretty cool R code Fairlane though - thanks for your support!

Re: Bruce Eilenbergers RS COPO in HMM
 
Sorry Bruce! Burnished brown gets skunked again. Your RS COPO is one of the coolest cars I have ever seen!
Happy holidays
Buddy
