COPO @ 2002 Barrett Jackson

[COPO]

I too have heard many things about this. One source said that there not all records are available and they are not organized.

Mickey Hale seemed to be pretty close to the source about the potential for documentation. Perhaps he'll chime in with an update.

And Don Wattie sold it to Fred Nolan here in St.Charles Il.
Fred sold that Camaro (if this is the same one) to a guy in the NorthEast about two years ago.He said he got 65K for it.Fully restored to the 9's with Canadian Doc.
I saw it just before he sold it.He did alright.
Fred still has his Frost Green 69 COPO Chevelle for sale.

FRED WHO? AND HOW MUCH

[COPO PETE]

Don actually had two rally green Camaro's at the same time. If memory is correct, one had a CE block and the other had the original motor. Both Central cars I believe. I thought Fred got the one with the original motor. The other one is suppose to be in the US but not sure on that.
Little Tommie.....I see it's your second post, so you're new here. When you type in capitals all the time, it is generally thought of as your yelling!.....relax...have a beer!

The person doing the documentation search is a registered member here and has been working on this project for a long time. I dont want to come out and say who he is and have everybody emailing him to death on the subject. I am sure if there is anything to be reported he will let us all know, if there are any remnants of paperwok to be had. This is a really large deal. Can you imagine trying to go thru a ton of film to see if anything is around. Chevrolet is a large operation, besides all the red tape to go thru, just finding what your looking for has to be a chore.

Does anyone know the reserve set for the COPO?

[Keith Tedford]

The GM of Canada car documentation is/was on microfilm which was copied from shipping lists. When we had our car documented quite a few years ago, they actually printed out a page of the shipping list containing the car info along with whatever other cars were on the same page. There were key codes, option codes and some other information for each car. The GM Oshawa guys printed up the information from these pages and deciphered the codes for a very nice presentation. People building and selling fakes might be getting just a little nervous about now.
To see Fred Nolan's Chevelle check www.batterytoppers.com He is asking $63K.

Stefano, unless I'm reading it wrong, there is no reserve.

Hate to keep mixing up the subject in this post so this is the last I'll post about documentation. If they do find documentation on GM cars, I'll volunteer to help enter information into a database if it will help us weed out the fakes that are being presented as originals.

[Keith Tedford]

It sounds like the one that was at the Oshawa show a year ago August. It looked pretty good and seemed to have all the documentation. Cars sold new in Canada would also have the GM of Canada documentation as well.
Sorry. Wrong colour. The one at the GM show was dark green with black interior.
