Re: Nischan-Spalding Chevrolet, Grand Rapids, Mich

To the best of my knowledge none of the COPO Chevelles from Emmert Chevrolet have ever surfaced. However, they should be easy to spot, as all of them also came with the "Sportscar Conversion Package", in addition to the 427 engine, just like a Yenko Chevelle, but without a decals and badges.

Only two of the Emmert COPO Camaros have surfaced, the rest are still unaccounted for. All of the Camaros that I ordered for Emmert had the "Sportscar Conversion Package". One is currently up in Canada and it is a nice car. The other is a rusted-out mess that is cobbled-up and missing pretty much everything.

Hi again - sorry that it took so long for me to respond to all of the info on my Nischan Spalding copo Camaro. I spoke to the original (owned it 30+ years) son who told me that his dad never took it out in the rain since new. So, it's got a great original body. Lots of original paint even! Tons of docs including the original POP. I've registered the car and will post photos when I can figure out how to do it! This is a great site - thanks so much to those responsible.

Hey Andy - you indicated that Ed lists one green copo from Nischan Spalding Chevrolet. Another posting says that one of the board members has that car. I also have a green copo from Nischan Spalding (with POP and all owners). Any idea how we could both have green copos from Nischan when Ed indicates that there was only one? Regards, Bruce

Re: Nischan-Spalding Chevrolet, Grand Rapids, Mich

I only know what I read, Bruce.
Have you asked Ed?

I promised Bruce, (Bergy)if he emailed me some pictures of his 69 COPO Camaro 9561/9737 I would post them for him. Well, I received an email from Bruce today, including some great exterior shots of his car. As soon as it warms up and Bruce takes his car outside, he will be sharing some interior shots as well.
Thanks for sharing Bruce! By the way, I am really jealous! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
