I believe Dennis and Annie also owned this one. I think it is now in the hands of Kevin Suydam.

The number 50 Fathom Blue Nova finds its way back to LaHarpe, IL from where the Fred Gibb 68 SS COPO Novas were ordered and received the first 2 weeks of July 1968. Helen Gibb displayed & attended many shows that would draw attention where it was displayed.

A clipping of Fred Gibb and racing of the Nova. T. L. Walker is shown with a 427 Nova, however in noticing it has stainless window & door trim, this feature wasn’t a part of the original feature of the Gibb COPO Novas?

This card displays only a small part of the enthusiasm Dennis displayed by by growing up around Fred Gibb Chevrolet.
