There were at least 18 dealers in Ohio that sold COPO cars,and 5 were in the Columbus area alone. There were 3 dealers in and around Springfield, which is 40 miles west of Columbus, 2 in the Cincy area, a couple on the river, 4 or 5 in the Cleveland area and a few scattered around the state. And these are just the ones that we know about.

I understand from talking to the current owner's son that Walters Chevrolet (now Bowman) in Hebron sold one COPO Camaro, one COPO Chevelle and one Yenko Camaro. I've been able to confirm the Camaro and was also recently able to confirm that they had a Yenko on their lot. The below image is an edit of a full page classified ad from late August 1970:
![]() Seems like $200 wasn't much of an ask to go from an SS350 to a sYc... Wonder if it was Rally or Fathom Green?

Was Bobb Chevrolet in Columbus a COPO dealer?
I've run across a few LS6's from there & see they are still in business. http://www.bobbchevrolet.com/ |
