Where was that dealership located?

I'm guessing because it was "Centre" it's in Canada but ya never know what kind of creative license could be used in the States!

London Ontario...one of Canada's major centres of performance!.
Central was a hotbed of action and rolled lots of new and used performance cars out their doors including Copo Camaros also were the only dealer other than Yenko to deliver any 1970 Copo Nova LT1 cars!.
They sold 2, one reportedly scrapped and the other survived and owned by Peter Simpson as seen in this Feature thread below..

Update to the above posted Central pic, Lance told me this pic is from the grand opening of the Performance Ctr. and was from an Oct 3/68 ad that appeared in the London Free Press..
Note the '69 cars in the pic are new models that were in stock by then!.

Sorry aqain for the hijack..
