Default Re: Canadian 1969 Chevelle 300 Deluxe SS, L78, M22

Our 300 DEluxe SS396 hardtop came from John Holland Motors in Burlington, Ontario as well.

This was the original owner of our car that we met at a Waterdown car show. He owned the dark gray Chevelle in the background at the time. He gave up on trying to find his old car and built the new one.
GM of Canada has the documentation on any car built and or sold new in Canada. Our L78 car was Baltimore built.

Hi Keith. I knew one of the mechanics at J. Holland back in the early 70s' as he worked on a 67 Corvette that was raced out of a Brantford, Ont. dealership in the late 60s', early 70s', which is where I met him. I bought a new 69 COPO Chevelle from B&A Chevrolet, located in the Yorkville area of Toronto, in 1969 and this one may be about as close to that one that I'm going to get. Doug.

Three of us bought COPO Chevelles through Beare Motors In Port Perry. They also sold a blue L88 Corvette and I understand it went to the U.S. a few years ago. Nurse Chev-Olds sold a red COPO Camaro in `69. In about 1970 the owner
had an accident. He was killed and the car was a total write off.
