69 Copo Camaros sold new in Canada

How long ago was that?

[Keith Tedford]

That was probably 5 years ago. I understand that he got the car back on the road a couple of years ago.

You're talkin' another Copo Chevelle Keith and not a Camaro?.

And your statement above "...They aren't actually documenting your car. They just send you information pertaining to a given VIN, nothing more..." is very well put and exactly true!.

Yes, it is a Chevelle.

Any of you guys have knowledge of the ZL1 Camaro shipped new into Nurse in 1969?

[PeteLeathersac]

I've read of it before too Lance and mentioned it here in past threads...supposedly sent to Nurse so a back up ZL1 was handy for Eaton's Can-Am team..
Unconfirmed is the engine was used by Eaton and Nurse sold the car w/ an iron motor?.
I believe Keith Tedford has mentioned here in the past that he saw an iron Copo at Nurse and maybe that the car was wrecked on the street?.
Also this same engine may be one Ed Cunneen found in more recent years???

Nothing to do w/ this subject Lance but did you see this thread from this morning?.

One weekend when there was a CanAm race at Mosport, there was either an AVS or UOP Shadow being worked on in the Nurse Chev-Olds back shop. I was told that GM had trailer loads of parts available to the racers on the circuit. Don't know this to be fact though.
The red COPO Chevelle that Nurse sold was an L72 car. I could have bought that car or the Chevelle that I bought from Beare Motors. The Chevelle didn't look like a stripper and was $700 cheaper. No regrets at all.

And on the Copo at Nurse's Keith?.
Perhaps I'm losing it but hadn't you mentioned here previously you'd seen one there also knew it was later wrecked?.

Funny on any Can-Am cars using the ZL1 427 engines as they ran different displacements anyway?.
