#228 This Hugger Orange 69 Camaro COPO is 124379N641030 and was sold new at Frost Chevrolet in Mechanicsville OH. I first became aware of this car back in '03 when the owner of the original engine for this car came on here looking for the car. Then in '05 this car came up for sale on e-bay with the owner claiming it had its original engine in it already. The owner of the engine and the owner of the car weren't able to come to terms, and I believe that Chris Cadwallader bought the car at that time and had it restored. It was restored and sold in '06 and at that time I don't believe it had any of its original drivetrain. This is a 4-speed car and only has 16K miles on it. It was part of the Dennis Payne Collection and hammered for $127.5K at Mecum Indy. I believe it still has the restamped engine in it, but there was another engine included in the sale. I'm not sure if that was the original engine or not.
