----In the summer of 69 I was looking for new ride and stopped in to the Chevy dealer in Wellsley Hills Ma. I ordered my 66 Corvette from them, and they had one salesman that sold all the performance cars. While I was there he took me outside to look at an entire load of new Chevelles all COPO's except he didn't call them that. The truck was delivering these all over east New England. I believe this car was on the truck. I was struck by another one that was silver with a blue vinyl top and blue gut, but it was going to another dealer. At the time I thought "geez, these cars don't have any SS emblems" and I was so shallow at that time it sort of turned me off. I don't know how I made it thru to 75!.....Bill S
