He is one interesting fella to talk to. He is in his 80s in age now but is sharp as can be mentally. He remembers alot...

He told me that he personally drove almost every 69 COPO Camaro that Stinn had when they came in off the delivery trucks. He prepped them and said they were fast as hell right from the factory... He said he and the other mechanics would wail on the COPOs power shifting them on the test drives, getting them sideways.

When I asked what would happen if they blew one up being that they were new, he responded by saying it was no big deal just send it back to Chevy... He is funny, then he would also say "you couldn't hurt those things" and just smile and laugh....
