I was just talking to a friend of mine Saturday about the Checkmate cars. Here is Mike Keener's '69 COPO that he raced in '72.

I believe Mike Keener purchased that car from Ed Stinn Chevrolet here in Cleveland, OH. All Ed Stinn Ordered COPOs had vinyl tops. I do not know if Mike purchased it from Ed Stinn directly or if his local dealer did a dealer trade of cars to obtain it. Don.

Don, I know a retired mechanic from Stinn's dealership, Kenny Danaher, who has a mind as sharp as a tack!!! He remembers everything about the COPOs and said he test drove everyone that came through Stinn's dealership.

He comes to the cruise inns all the time here locally. I will introduce you to him this summer.
