Re: Cedar Rapids COPO ?
Do you have the car, or are you looking for it? I don't remember that car, but there was/maybe still is, one setting in a junk yard in Wis not to far from Dubuque.
Same yard as the infamous Yenko dirt track Chevelle.

Re: Cedar Rapids COPO ?
Thanks for the response. I have it sitting in the garage here... in the process of restoring it, just trying to find some history before any traces that may be left disappear.

Re: Cedar Rapids COPO ?
Cedar Rapids was insane back then. Every stop light was a drag race. All makes and models. ist ave Plymouth had 3 transport loads of AAR Cudas. Mr G's speed shop had 2 locations if I remember correctly.
Now they have speed cameras, and decibel meters. If you fart to loud you get a ticket.

Re: Cedar Rapids COPO ?
My L78 Nova was purchased out of Rapids Chevrolet in April 1969. I'm sure it was involved is some of that street racing. Fortunately its still all together.
