Default KING Chevrolet Cincinnati Oh COPO INFO?

Looking for any information anyone in the area might remember about a copo or two coming out of KING CHEV. now McCluskey Chev.
In particular looking for information or anyone remembering a Lemans Blue 427 4spd car coming from King would have been on the lot by mid June 1969?
Other particulars gauges, console, rear antenna, X11 style trim, no spoiler.

Thanks

Awesome... I didn't check the pan on the 69 for remnants of emblem holes there.

I inspected the car well yesterday.
JM is going to be here next month so going to get him to certify the car.
The throttle arm and cowl induction piercings are all there and in tact.
Muncie Cable and clip piercings are there.
The dash carrier doesn't appear to have ever been removed.
All the glass is original.
Fenders Hood and Quarters and tailpan are all original dated for the car. (didn't remove door panels to check doors however they appear to be original as well.)
All the original rear antenna hardware and cable has never been out of the car.
Pass fender extension has a what appears to be the top of a 2 and the complete 7.
Original 5 leaf springs.
Original 2 piece rotors and 533 calipers
Subframe valve, disc hold off, and proportioning block all original.
Heater core appears to be GM, (brass with correct tube end form)
3/8 Single Fuel line- doesn't appear disturbed and not a replacement and original GM sending unit in the original tank.

Overall a Nice X11, Lemans Blue, 4 spd, Gauges, rear antenna COPO.
