1969 Chevelle

[Keith Tedford]

Back in the '80s, very few even knew what a COPO Chevelle was. At the Barrie Flea market, I had people give me the "Yeah right" look when talking about having a COPO Chevelle. I doubt that people were building COPO clones in that era. Sounds like a very interesting car to me.

Just an update.

I managed to get the current address of my friend so that's the first good news I have had yet. I will contact him and hope for the best . I hope his reaction is good.

Isnt the rear mount antena supposed to be on the other side or did they come both ways

[Keith Tedford]

When I put a radio in our Chevelle, I put the antenna on the driver's side. Village idiots had a tendency to break off aerials as they walked down the street. I reasoned that they might just be too lazy to walk around the car. Worked for me.

I don't know if the antenna is on the correct side, it was always on that side. like that when he got the car from what I remember.

Another update , but nothing good, I have placed two calls , but none returned . I will try one more time and hope for the best.

thanks to you all here for taking the time and answering my posts.

Just as a possible lead. There is a car very similiar to this 69 less the wheels etc in New Brunswick.Same color in fact.I don't know the owner but know the mechanic very well that overhauled the 427 and 4spd for it I am going to say about 5 years ago but it could be more. It was also a 454 auto prior to the change out and I have heard him quote the car was a original COPO. I can get more info possibly if interested. Let me know Thanks Joe
