That silver COPO Chevelle has got to be one of the greatest sleepers ever.
From the outside, you'd think it was a 307 (other than the normal 307 emblems)...awesome.

#64. This COPO Chevelle was sold new at The Westminster Motor Company in Westminster MD. It is a numbers matching automatic car with a console. It is documented with a build sheet and POP. It was restored by George Lyons about 10 years ago and was the December 2005 Super Car Feature on this site. This is the only COPO Chevelle with Malibu trim that I have ever seen. I've heard that there are a couple more out there but I don't know what condition they're in. Sorry about the signs in front of the car. I walked past the car several times but never saw the owner around.

Ha, Myron.....you could have easily asked me to move the sign.....I would have gladly moved them for you - for picture purpose.

Ha - Bruce, I remember these pics like it was yesterday. George certainly deserves all the credit for restoring this Special COPO Chevelle to the highest standard [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

#65. This Camaro is an 09D M22 car that was sold new at Maxton Chevrolet in Columbus OH. It was listed as a numbers matching car with 4.56 gears when it went to action a few years ago.

Think I saw this one at Legendary Motor Car here in Milton.

By memory, survivor to some degree?

It was at Legendary Motor Car, but I believe it is a total restoration. I think Doug Perry was the one who found it and restored it so maybe he can chime in on that.
