If you are referring to the 1969 ZL1 - no it didn't sell - bid to $550,000.

Or are you referring to a Hugger Orange COPO Camaro which didn't sell at $155,000

Gee...I didn't even get an honorable mention for the silver car....that Nova was part of our fleet for a number of years. We did a 're-fresh' on the car, added the pinstripes and I asked Skip to write the article for Nova Times. The car was displayed at the Nova Nats in Belterra in 2007...Nancy Gibb and I took a morning cruise in that car along the Ohio River...lots of fun! Dave Tinnell did the original restoration on the car back in the 90's.

Thanks Bill...I was in touch with Skip...he didn't even know the car was at the auction. If someone plays up the ownership heritage angle, the least you can do is let the guy whose name you are using know about it.

FYI: that car had a warranty transmission installed back in the day...the cost was $25!!

It was a terror back in the day...it was called "The Silver Streak"...I may even have an NOS trunk emblem somewhere for that car??

This car was sold new at Iten Chevrolet, Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. I believe the dealership is still there, but is a different name today.
