Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
Kool Car, I also agree that you should keep it the way it is.
How about a picture of the hood...

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
I will be there tonight at Solon, assuming the weather holds out. Besides a couple of appearances at Thompson Drag Raceway, nobody has seen this car since my friend owned it... which was 11 years.

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
Even if it proves to be "officially" a COPO,I'd still leave it alone.In it's present condition,it takes me straight back to high school in the Seventies.It will still be just as much a COPO with it restored or un-restored.I absoulutely love this car.It's a traffic stopper either way!!!!.My two cents!!!......BILLJ

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
Keep it as is!...you can always restore the car to original specs, but you can only have it as an original "Day 2" car once...right?...isn't that how it goes

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
I agree that this will remain a day 2 car. I personally never had the urge to find the original exhaust manifolds, AIR pump, carb, ignition, etc. to make a car "original".
As for the paint, I do think that if I do find a build sheet, I'll go back to Garnet Red. And maybe an MQ block. But I think that'll be all. Changing subjects... how many of you plan on attending the ACES event on 8/17? I'm thinking it may be more fun than Woodward, at least this year. Not to mention my daughters and wife will have fun at the pool for the day. And again, I can't say this enough...

Re: She's Home (Ribbon COPO)
I'm going and I believe Mike (M22Mike) and Grady (1969GRB) are also going. I'm planning on bringing three 1969 Chevelles, if I can finish the current project in time.
