Default Re: 1969 Chevelle

I find it interesting that the supposed Copo Chevelle on Ebay, B397120, which is supposed to be the car Doug bought new on Sept. 21, 1969, trading a '67 Corvette towards, has a body shown in the Ebay ad that has green body color sprayed over the floors where the plugs should be, with no evidence of caulk. It looks like someone went to great effort to make it look like a factory green body shell, with water stains/ pine needles in the floor areas, etc. That is also certainly the cleanest Ontario '69 Chevelle body I've ever seen!

The Copo Chevelle that Doug bought new, B397120 was known to have been sent to the junkyard tears ago. I talked to a Copo Chevelle owner who sent his Chevelle to the junkyard years ago, a Fathom green car. He didn't know it was a Copo, he called it a 396 car. I need to verify which Copo that was, it may be the same car.
