And not for nothing it’s been repainted! Who’s to say they put it back on?

Cowl hole with wiring and original grommet is the first picture.

Second picture is of the underside of the deck lid. Now some of these stickers may not be original, but I researched some of the old ones and they are from the late 60s/ early 70s. If there is anyone who remembers seeing the inside of the deck lid of the HH car, please tell me if this looks familiar or not??

Additionally, I have the matching front wheel and rear wheel in the trunk as pictured on the car in the autographed photo. I will take pics of them and post tomorrow.

Can you post a picture of your roof gutters, specifically the 'corner' piece at the top of the windshield?

The other car is not for sale on FB. It's on https://www.racingjunk.com/Chevrolet...=0&from=search
Won't send pics, makes you question what's there.

If your not into projects this car is probably not for you. Please only inquire if you are a serious buyer. If you don’t waste my time, I won’t waste yours. No photos at thus time - it’s in lots of parts. Original title and paperwork.

Short update on the HH car;

The original owner of this car confirms that it was a Tuxedo Black, X11 Copo that was purchased from Wallace Chevrolet in Linden, NJ. The owner removed the VIN (616462)and Trim Tag many years ago, and junked the car. The owner retained the bill of sale, dash bezel, the doors, a fender and possibly the transmission. The owner told each of us the same story, that there was no body and it was junked 20 years ago in northern NJ. These items were for sale, however, approx. 6 people passed on the deal because there was no firewall - much less an entire car. One person considered buying the items as memorabilia, and to prevent a rebody, but the price was prohibitive for that purpose.

About a month ago, I received word that somebody in NY claimed to have bought these items from the orig owner. Additionally, the claim is that the original body was found and pulled from a junk yard after 20+ years even though the orig owner did not remember where the body went. The plan is to restore the car, not sure if it will be done as the HH or factory.

Take it for what it's worth, but beware https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ima...aemlins/no.gif

The VIN # referenced in this old post was from the original owner of the HH car, which I presume is what the seller in NY purchased way back when.... Wallace sold at least 5 COPO Camaro's, its possible that 2 were black, Frankie recalls the HH car was an X11 body style. Let's see what the seller's VIN is before you go claiming to own the HH car....

Kurt, the HH car is being discussed on FB, but to your point... not For Sale on FB: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...&theater&ifg=1

Thanks Marlin. Finding things on FB is damn difficult with all the different groups.... Esp when I was looking for an ad.

I'm not claiming to own the HH car, I just want to prevent someone from making a $30k mistake. According to all my research, no one can produce this VIN as referenced. All the information on the supposed HH VIN is second hand, I don't go by second hand info. All I'm doing is documenting everything I have found so far. Nothing is telling me I do or don't have the HH car yet. Anybody can tell anyone any VIN number.

Believe me, half of me doesn't want to own the HH car. I don't want the responsibility of bringing it back to its original state.

Ok, I was just confused by this post - wasn't sure what you don't want to believe; that you have a 10 10 COPO car or a 10 10 COPO HH car :dunno:

I am 100% sure I have a '69 Wallace Chevrolet 10/10 COPO, I just am trying to figure out which one. From the information I have gotten, only 2 10/10 X44 COPOs went out from Wallace in '69. One was the HH and the other was the sister car that was sold at the same time. I have one of those cars and I'm trying to get definitive information to determine which one. Any information will help and be appreciated.

What info source is providing the definitive information on how the cars were equipped? :dunno:

How are you "100% sure I have a .... COPO"? Where have you gotten your info about only 2 10/10 X44 COPO's from Wallace, and how is one of them the HH car if Frankie recalls it as an X11 automatic car? Kurt or Steve can correct me, but I'm pretty sure an X11 has the fancy stuff on it....
