Re: indian river 69 copo camaro questions
I wanted to mention that Indian River Chevrolet sold 2 ZL1's , the red one which was fromerly owned by Dick Bridges, (now Frank D in CA) and the Hugger Orange which was bought new by Bill Turner. I bought the HO ZL1 from Bill in the 80's with 911 miles. It is back to day one, a fairly easy resto. Orig Motor, P-O-P , window sticker, dealer invoice, BE rear, even have the receipt from engine blueprint right after car purchase. Also orig quarters, fenders doors, rosewood, endura, header , valance,subframe trunk lid, only the hood was replaced due to hole for tunnel ram, and rear trunk floor section swapped from CA parts car due to trimming on inner wheelhouses. (all photo documented ) Still has 911 miles. I like to look at it, its a stunning low mile work of art. Bob Dance was the salesman who sold both of them, they were twins in a way, both with tinted glass, rally wheels, endura bumper, and rosewood steering wheel. I also have the 69 COPO Cortez Silver 4 sp from Indian River that was Bill Turner's . It has the dealer inv too, showing headlight washer option! (Its not a rally sport though) Maybe that is the silver car that Vern B remembers. Its being restored, and is going to paint shortly.Steve Drueck
