If the car would have been the &quot;Rats Nest&quot; from new, it may have been a consideration. But the fact it was a Fred Gibb/Dick Harrell super tuned 396 COPO Nova outweighed its racing configuration to the owner. It could always be returned to the Rats Nest..BKH

I was fortunate to be able to see the car at MCACN 2014 and I was able to talk to Brian Henderson at the display. The restoration is unbelievable and it was a joy to meet and talk to Brian too.

The 50 Fred Gibb COPO Novas were the very first solid lifer big block cars to receive the turbo 400 automatics. In 1969 it became a RPO...BKH

#119. This COPO Chevelle was sold new at Brewers Chevrolet in Capton KY. It has a blue interior with a console. It is also an M40 car and I believe it has a numbers matching drivetrain. It was featured in Muscle Cars Kings of the Street from the Golden Era. This is probably my favorite COPO Chevelle.

I know what you mean by probably? There are some really great '69 COPO Chevelles out there to like....My favorite is Fred Nolan`s former Frost Green COPO [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

#120. This COPO Camaro was sold new at Dale Chevrolet in Waukesha WI. This is a documented and numbers matching 4 speed car with a yellow hounds tooth interior and 30K original miles. This is the car I posted a picture of from the Car Craft Summer Nationals several months ago. It was cool to actually see it in person at MCACN.
