It's funny how it works Bill. They are not all so punctual! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] That part you really need always seems to take forever!
Anyway, back to Phil's great COPO. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] |
Re: Woj Phil Wojnarowski/Jim Walker1969 COPO Chevelle
Very cool Phil, super nice COPO. Both guys are great to talk to. I talk to Jim at the NOCC last year and traded stories about the old days. He asked me if I had a Chevelle and I said a LS6, his eyes lighted up and then asked 4 speed or auto, I said 4 speed. He laughed and said he would beat me easy, because all the guys would miss a gear. That's why I wanted a automatic and just laughed. Was really fun to see him so excited about his old car. That never seems to go away. Phil will be a great care guy to the COPO, also a nice guy. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: Woj Phil Wojnarowski/Jim Walker1969 COPO Chevelle
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for all the nice comments. Jim and I had fun writing this article together. He pitched the idea to Hemmings and they liked it. It was last year, about this time, he was going to submit photos to Hemmings of his "long lost COPO", when I called him. He may have even already submitted a photo or two, just before the call. He was immediately interested checking out the car and sharing his photos and stories. We share emails on a regular basis. We were lucky enough to get advanced issues, even before Damien and Ryan, so we decided to meet for lunch and open them together last Monday (my wife provided the countdown to envelope opening). We both agree that Hemmings exceeded our expectations by about 200% with the story and layout. If I could find the two "lost owners" mentioned in the article, I'm sure the car's story will get more interesting. Ryan, thanks for posting the story here. Phil Woj. |
