Re: A new Chevy II COPO owner.
I just talked with Helen for a few minutes this morning. You can hear the smile in her voice. She is one Happy Lady!
And Jeff, I'm pretty sure it's gonna stay Fathom Blue!  This is just plain

Re: A new Chevy II COPO owner.
Since the first day I met Helen in 1999, she always wished to have had one of the original COPO's from her and Fred's dealership. Her wish has come true. She is now the proud owner of the last Gibb COPO Chevy II made, the #50 car. In my opinion, the one that survived all these years so she could live her dream. She wants to return it to showroom stock condition, it is already almost there, just need to bolt on some factory equipment. What a pair!

Re: A new Chevy II COPO owner.
Congratulations Helen. This is great news. These are exciting times for our hobby and you are so much a part of the excitement. The Nova will have a great homecoming I'm sure.

Re: A new Chevy II COPO owner.
When I first heard Helen now owns this Nova,I thought We should get a Serious Professional Picture of Her behind the wheel of it,Lighting the Rear Tires up.Either at the Reunion/Collinsville Dragstrip this September,or Maybe in the Parking Lot of the Old Fred Gibb Dealership location this coming August.
I think that would make a Great Symbolic Picture for all to Cherish!
