1969 Yenko Nova

[COPO]

I spoke w/the Seller of the COPO Chevelle and he was very upfront about the restoration process employed on the car. I chose not to purchase it, but there was absolutely no attempt to deceive me.

COPO,,, What color was that COPO Chevelle???.....Bill S

-----And what trans did it have???

Was it the orange one?

Copo,
Unfortunately the ultimate buyer for the Black/Auto Copo Chevelle did not receive the same disclosure. That is why he told me the car went back to the seller.

Mark, I believe that info was disclosed to the buyer I believe there was other issues for the car to be returned.

John,
The buyer told me he didn't know until he saw a/c components on the firewall. Although he had been told by others their may have been issues with the car, he said he believed what the seller told him. Who do you believe anymore???

Well what a day. Me and my father went over to Brian's shop today and seen the car in person. All I can say what an awesome car.

It is a shame on what has happened with this car though. Someone was made aware of what this car was 4 years ago when they contacted us about the car and it seems whoever that was didn;t release the information that my father had given to future buyers. When the call came in back then a employee of ours answered the phone, and told my father someone is on the phone about a Yenko nova. I am going to contact him and sees what he remembers anything about the call. What is known that whoever call said they were someone who tracks down these sorts of cars and the car was being restored. After finding out that is was not a 427 asked if we were interested in buying the car back.

And the car has just kept being handed down as a conversion 427 car. Brian even should us paper work from Ed verifying the car was a 427. I would like to see where that kind of information could have come from.

Also forgot to mention Brian has been talking to the current owner about removing the stripes and making a few other small changes on the car to make it just as it was when my father picked it out of Yenkos lot 37 years ago. I'd personally like to see it the way it was in that picture I posted. With the black steel wheel and slicks

Now that would be cool..

Thanks for taking the time to help sort things out. I bet it was neat seeing the car again after all these years.

Now if we can only determine who was told the car was not a 427 "4 years ago".
