Copo 9561
 

Hi all


This was ay my local car show this past Tuesday night. Amazing time capsule and IMO was the star of the show!

This car is registered at the COPO connection.

Sweet! :drool:

Very cool!!

I couldn’t believe what I was looking at. Never mind it being a 9561 but the originality of it was stunning! Most ppl looked at it and just walked by. Like it was just another camaro lol.

Window sticker, PoP, racing history ect..

Was purchased from Valenti Chevrolet in Connecticut

711 Trim, 10 10 Paint, 9561, How Sweet.

This display board was in the back sear

That's an unrestored car? Wow! Thanks for posting. I hope you have a few more photos?

That’s all the pics I was able to get however there is another show coming up and this car will be there. I plan on getting lots more pics. The underneath looks completely untouched including the exhaust. Same for the engine and bay. It does have headers. The interior has that familiar “old car” smell lol.

It’s very very original. I’ll get more pics

Looks like an endurance bumper car also. Icing on the cake.

Where was this car show located?

- Warren

Ludlow Mass

Yes it does have that. No deck lid spoiler. Very plain except for the chrome trim. The tires on it I didn’t like but what a incredible car to see in person. Finally

Using the CPI inflation calculator, $3892.70 in 1969 dollars converts to $27,286.98 as of August 2019. Read it and weep!

At the Elks cruise?

Window sticker is an aged repro.

Yes
Did you happen to see it? I didn’t get a chance to talk to the owner.

Is car legit?

Don't know. Never saw it and not aware of anyone that has.

Nice looking car.
Sure is an aged repro window sticker.Don't let him try to pass it off as real.

At first glance I thought I was looking at Beardy's COPO but then I saw the hubcaps. As long as Beardy owns his it'll never have the caps back on it. LOL

That WS will fool most people.
Can you get a pic of the trim tag next time you see it? Thanks!

Info
 

As stated not a real window sticker.........

Paul

I will.
Very interesting on the window sticker. I need to talk to the owner and see whats up.

The display board said it has certified by the COPO connection. Would that be Ed Cunnen?

I’m in Massachusetts. Where is the next car show that the car will be at ?

Brimfield Mass. October 12th.

I will try and gather more info on this car next time I see it.

Thanks for the help everyone

Yes. I believe Ed gave two types of certs. Back in the 90's when he did my car, the paperwork and plaque were carefully worded, saying only that the body number and vin were from his records as being a Berger Copo. Not the car. He said that would cost extra and he would have to see the car.

Interesting info. Thanks.

I have the COPO connection book I bought from Ed and I think the year was 2000. Really great info. I’ve read it so many times.

Hi !

This car is listed as "documented" in the first COPO Connection Source Book, just like mine was. It is under "Berger and L-72"

When I saw it at the carshow near Hartford I didn´t find my little camera, so I couldn´t take any pictures. I remember the owner saying that it had been sitting in a garage for a long time because of a problem in one of the cylinders. He said he had sleeved it, "just like they do in Nascar", and it was still std bore.
He didn´t have any paperwork on display at that show.

This is the book I have

COPO Connection Source Book
 

The version I have a copy of is the first one I believe.
I don´t know how to attach pics anymore. Can you give me an email address to send them to ?

Wow that is a good window sticker... makes one think there was a piece of an original or a car shipper or something it was made from...
