I believe that may be a picture of Gibb Copo Nova #3 VIN 369583. Listed as Tripoli Turquoise, Harrell 427, with Cragar's on the COPO Connection list. Jude H. found the car in the southwest, New Mexico? It was sold through the Courtesy Chevrolet location in Los Angeles.

If this is #3, I believe the picture is from the original owner. Jude said he had a picture from the original owner, and the emblem was hard to tell if it was black or red. Not sure when delivered to Courtesy via Dick Harrell but shipped to Gibb Chevrolet 7/11/68.
I have this note on my sheet when I discussed the car with Jude years ago. I do not know who currently owns it, but pics like these from original owners are priceless.

#4 Vin 369657, which is also Tripoli Turquoise, is listed as a non-Harrell warranty replacement 427, so it may not have had 427 emblems installed after the transplant. Joe, do you know which one this picture is from?
