Some more 70 COPO history stuff

[COPO 70 RS/Z28]

Hey Phil,

I have been doing some history stuff and have and found (im pretty sure) the owners of my car back to 1983 so far I have actually talked to the 1983 owner and he thinks he may have some photos of the car, what a trip BTW he is the guy who painted the wheels black. He was real exited to here from me and commented that the photos I sent him (to include the license plate frame and aftermarket air cleaner,valve covers)looked identical to what he remembered. From our conversation it looks like the car may have only accumulated 24000 miles in the last 21 years. What a trip

I still need to talk to the owner after him, I think I've located him.

Cool stuff

Hey thanks for the help on the Ruse stuff

Have you considered showing the car at the next SCR?

I was thinking about it but its kinda junky compaired to others. Its cool dont get me wrong but its not realy a survivor (oh no I said it) and its not a restore. If theres some interest and the thing is streetworthy I think it would be cool

I get ribbed about a 1/4 mile pass from time to time when I attend... Did you consider running the car down the strip?

No..My car is currently busy running off the shelves at the book stores... besides You know you have more gear ratio than I have so I am gonna loose. A 3.73 is not going to beat a 4.10 in the Quarter mile.



It's OK Marlin, we will get a victim lined up for you.

My car ran off the shelves last year in Chevy Rumble, no biggie - it still runs the number!! Don't let a little ink get in your way of having a good time

BTW, as much as I hate to admit it, Frankie's Deuce beat me 2 years straight with a .... 3.73 gear. So, no hiding behind that excuse.

I'll have to try another angle on ya!

If you guys go, I'll go. Besides, I still owe marlin that grudge match against his deuce!

Don't feel bad about the car not being perfect. You have time to bring it up to the standards that it deserves, and in the meantime you can have fun driving it.

Well to be honest with you I went out looking for a driver anyway. The copo thing was an added bonus. The car seems to run well but up here where I am you wouldnt want to drive your car until april so it has not been road tested yet.

I would run it, but depending on how it tests out would depend on how much heart was put into the pass
