Hi guys. Unfortunately those pictures were taken when it was only a couple of months old. I took that blue bow tie emblem off of the grill and its still in the top of my tool box today along with the B&A Chevrolet sign off of the back. I just bought another B&A Chev sign at a swap meet a couple of weeks ago; first one I have seen come up for sale and it was for sentimental reasons only. I have the original bill of sale, transport copy and broadcast sheet for that car; well optioned?--not really. It was a 427-425, M22, 4:10s, bucket seats, SS Wheels and a radio, pretty standard for the day. It drove like gangbusters though-12.60 et. first day out with slicks and headers. Doug.

Doug, nice hearing from you again, it's been years lol.
I remember the stories of this COPO Chevelle as well as some about Edgar (Spelling the dutch name right, GOOD LUCK) Vandertuin's COPO 427 Nova???? I worked with Ed around '82 when I bought my Black GTX convertible. We talked cars and he and others were claiming that his GREEN '69 Nova was another COPO like your Chevelle? I recall Ed saying that HIS and yours were the only 2 FACTORY installed 427 cars in town. Gordy's '69 Nova, that I know own, was "supposed" to be a 427 car too, but we knew better about that one YEARS ago when Gordy still owned it, it IS a SS396 Nova. You knew all the stories on this stuff, so what was your take on Eddie's Nova? John
