I was kidding. My copo Chevelle was sold there as well as a garnet red copo camaro. Believe they used a dealer decal but have never found anything.

I've asked some friends, but haven't seen some of the old-timers lately that would know more.
If they let me back into the country, I'll ask more.

I even spoke to Jim Keegan, their hi-po car salesman as well as Jim Chumbley's son who still lives in the Detroit area. No luck....

This is a long shot...try some of the old junk yards in the area...sometimes you can find a vehicle that still has some dealer items on it.

This! I've found several trinkets in yards, even dealer emblems from other states - found a 'By Byrne' emblem on the tailgate of a '65 Nova station wagon, it ended up on Arone's yellow copo Camaro. I've found Sunderland, Hauser, Reedman, etc.... all in the same yard!
