We finished with 2nd place in our class which was not a surprise. The interior is original and the seats have a few blems as does the drivers side door panel (my big feet over the years). It did draw the largest crowds according to the organizer.

Congrats Tim and Rick. She looks just swell! Pls remind me of this car's history and how long you have owned it. Is this the Camaro that you determined was a COPO <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">after</span></span> you bought it? THanks! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Bought when I was 18 (1978). Rumors that it was a 396 car and that the 396 had been replaced by dealer with a 427. I moved to Singapore in 88 and stored it. 2 years ago i brought it out and towed it from Nova Scotia to Houston. I ran the vin through GM Canada and found out it was a COPO. Original and third owners are deceased. I stay in contact with the second owner (71-73).

Nice car and nice score.
Car must of cost you a small fraction of what it is really worth back in the day i bet.
Really like that it has the RS package as well.

Gentlemen:
It's time to tweak the car and address a few minor issues as per your pointers and advice. As always your input has been much appreciated. Quick question. Black rockers? CRG says all COPOs had black rockers yet very few of the pics of restored COPOs have black rockers. Comments?

Not all COPOs had black rockers, that is part of the X11 style trim package. Very Nice looking COPO, congrats.
