The word is that it's been confirmed, Ed and Porterfield have the numbers. If it's true, expect to see the ad change to reflect that.

The owner emailed me and said it was confirmed as COPO Nova # 4. Sounds like an interesting find . . .

Interesting? I would say awesome! Cars like this make me wish I had money to buy them. I can only hope that one day I'll have the money to pursue awesome cars like this.

And don't give me the 'ol line about working hard, and someday you'll have the money; It doesn't work that way . . . I've discussed this with my Sociology teacher numerous times. The rich are forever rich, and the poor keep getting poorer. That's the way our economic system is designed. That's not to say that I'm poor, but I definitely couldn't afford a car of that caliber.

Maybe if it was through someone's good graces . . .

What's with all the Dick Harrell cars popping up lately? Possibly a 1969 Camaro, and now the Nova . . .

It's a Dick Harrell revolution!!

Some better pics of those tough to find parts would help, and a pic of the cert.

Hmmm, Sociology Prof's - surely have their finger on the pulse of national economics Shouldn't they be studying the negative effects of clothing on pigmys or something?

Now I'm a little confused. What is it that makes this Nova a COPO? Was it originally a 4 speed car that was converted to a TH400? Or was this one of the 50 TH400 396/375 cars built for racing purposes?

Indeed, studying the negative effects of clothing on pigmys would be interesting, but then you would have to take in to account numerous variables, such as what each of the pigmys' thoughts would be about each of the other pigmy's clothes. Confusing! Our world is based on peoples perceptions of others. See, I am learning something in college!

Well, time for another cold one!

Speaking of beer, who's got green beer for St. Patty's Day?

All console Novas have a floor hump, regardless of whether they are 4sp or a/t. Per the seller, the car is confirmed as one of the 50 COPO cars, but not sure if it has a connection to Harrell.

We drink good Rolling Rock beer from a Green bottle, does that count

Ok, I read his description again and it says the 4 speed stuff was probably added later in time. So this is 1 of the 50 cars. Pretty cool and the body looks to be in decent shape. Better bid quick before he increases the reserve!
