Re: The CONVINCER II
That Comfort Custom shot is a 68 Chevelle, not even the same car? Vent windows and grill (hint)
The "MOF"

Here is another shot from 1981 with the sponsorname on it.

Re: The CONVINCER II
I would like to go to New Jersey to visit Pete Dedella, Dan Rich and Joe Spino, if possible. But Pete has a secret phonenumber so I can´t get hold of him.
Kevin, could you or mabye John(4274speed) try to find out a way to get in contact with Pete ? Thanks

Re: The CONVINCER II
I'm told Pete DeDella has moved to Florida. His old phone number from NJ is no good. I don't have any other leads at this time.

Re: The CONVINCER II
Here is another pic of the HemiCuda when i still had it´s American sponsorname "Speedwin" on the doors.
Pic was taken by a guy from Linköping who I bought some old magazines from yesterday.

Re: The CONVINCER II
Going through old magazines I found this pic of the Convincer II in Colorod #11 1977. It was taken during the 1979 season after the car had been repainted.

Re: The CONVINCER II
[ QUOTE ]
According to my copy of the window sticker I got from Pete Dedella, this 69 COPO Chevelle was very unique. Does anyone know the earliest Vin # on a 69 COPO Chevelle? VIN#13637 9B3799xx 13637 8 Malibu Spt Coupe $2,690.00 Destination Charge $68.50 6AO1GA Soft-Ray Tinted Glass $36.90 6J52FM Power Disc Brakes $64.25 6M22CB Special 4-Speed Trans $264.00 6753BA Black Cloth Trim .00 6924FF 71-71 Lemans Bue .00 9566AA High Performace Unit $532.95 ____________________________________ Factory Installed Options $898.10 ____________________________________ Total Cost $3656.60 [/ QUOTE ] Going back through this thread, I see I missed Kevin's question...the earliest 9562 Chevelle vin# I have is naturally a Yenko car (B34xxxx) while this B379xxx vin is just prior to the earliest non-Yenko COPO Chevelle I have info on...looks like Yenko got 50+ before everyone else got privy to the COPO Chevelles. [BTW: I've started working on the COPO/Yenko Chevelle database/registry again, so if anyone would like to donate any info, please do!]

Re: The CONVINCER II
I made a typo in my last post
. The pic is from Colorod #11 1979. The Convincer II was still in the USA in 1977.
