It is kind of funny to hear that ACES is going to feature COPO cars. I have visited with ACES pres. Chuck H. several times and his thing is not original cars. He prefers modified cars (Chevelles), does not like trailored cars, nor indoor type events that feature "show cars". It is kind of neat how several of the larger shows (Vettefest, ACES) are starting to realize the impact that COPO/dealer built cars have on a show. It makes all of the hard work that the sYc and friends have done worth while. Tom

Has anyone ever been to one of the ACES shows? Joe and I have just joined the club and are wondering what to expect...BKH

Its a real laid back show. No judging. (participant vote) Nice cars show up and its a good time. Not for the real extreme restos, although a few show up. It seems to be a crusing type deal, they go to the drags and a couple other places. Just a plain good time.

I have heard it's a pretty good show...lots of cars, but it has usually been really low on COPO/dealer cars (that's just what I have heard...I was planning to take my Chevelle last year, but I got sidetracked).

Anyway, not only is it ironic that the larger shows are now FINALLY acknowledging the COPO/dealer cars, but isn't it ironic that the very next year after the Supercar Reunion in Hendersonville, TN, Chevell-a-Bration decided to cruise to the drag strip after the show! The very same one we went to after the Supercar Reunion! Seems like the Supercar Reunion and it's participants may have started some trends!
