Yes, that is the car. The guy on facebook is Mike Lucas. he owned the car from 1976 to 1978. It was sold and parked from 1978 to 2002.

When it was found and sold in 2002 is was thought to be a Yenko or copo at that time but the new owner never done any research. All he was concerned about was having a rust fee body to build. The car was restored and painted silver and had a ZL1 427 installed.

Not until 2009 when the car was sold back to the guy who found it in 2002. It was then research and discovered to be a real copo.

Your welcome.

That picture was taken at a drive-in restaurant in Rainelle,WV around June/July 1969. when the car was only a few weeks old by the orignal owner.
While researching the history of the car we found out that the restaurant was still in bussiness in 2010. It was called J&amp;S or M&amp;S.
We had planned on hauling the car back to that same parking lot and taking a picture with five of the Previous owners from back in the day but we never took the time to do so.
