William,any idea how Gibb reacted when Berger got the #3 car and can you say what was the possible issue with the Courtesy COPO?

Thought this was appropriate now for this conversation .

I just took pics of the original paperwork from my former ZL-1 number 34.

GM car shipper list price of $7269.35 with the $4160.15 COPO 9560 option.

Complete Auto Transit shipper receipt when car arrived at Gibb Chevrolet dated March 7 and recieved March 11.

Letter on Gibb letterhead documenting Complete Auto Transport, Inc. picked up car from Gibb on May, 24th to be shipped back to Norwood plant.

I also have paperwork where car was redistributed to Govan’s Chevrolet in Baltimore, Md and finally sold in June of 1970 for 4800 bucks !!

If i remember correctly , Jim Mattison, who worked in Chevrolet Fleet and Special Order department had some relationship to Berger either family or dated the daughter?

I used to email with him after sending him copies of COPO paperwork that was found with a Yenko Camaro

He said he became friends with Don Yenko and flew on Don's plane with him a few times to go to races. He said Don got him a doctor's note saying he was sick when he wanted to skip work to go to a race

here is an article with info on Jim M
