How are you "100% sure I have a .... COPO"? Where have you gotten your info about only 2 10/10 X44 COPO's from Wallace, and how is one of them the HH car if Frankie recalls it as an X11 automatic car? Kurt or Steve can correct me, but I'm pretty sure an X11 has the fancy stuff on it....

That is based off of NCRS information for the dealership and delivery day, the VIN number decode, and an aficionado named Rich that called me right after I bought it who was well-versed in those COPOs. Unfortunately, we lost touch. I am now trying to get the documentation together before I start the full resto on it,so I know what specs I am aiming for during restoration.

Cowl hole with wiring and original grommet is the first picture.

Second picture is of the underside of the deck lid. Now some of these stickers may not be original, but I researched some of the old ones and they are from the late 60s/ early 70s. If there is anyone who remembers seeing the inside of the deck lid of the HH car, please tell me if this looks familiar or not??

Additionally, I have the matching front wheel and rear wheel in the trunk as pictured on the car in the autographed photo. I will take pics of them and post tomorrow.

Can you post a picture of your roof gutters, specifically the 'corner' piece at the top of the windshield?

The other car is not for sale on FB. It's on https://www.racingjunk.com/Chevrolet...=0&from=search
Won't send pics, makes you question what's there.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro - $29,000
Listed By joejon Contact (716) 435-5020
springville, NY
Ad Number 183988434

Description
1969 427 COPO Camaro
Real COPO Camaro known as Huckleberry hound . Was drag raced in NHRA Super Stock EA when new and never street driven. Disassembled in current state. Still retains many original and valuable parts. Deserves to be resurrected!
If your not into projects this car is probably not for you. Please only inquire if you are a serious buyer. If you don’t waste my time, I won’t waste yours. No photos at thus time - it’s in lots of parts. Original title and paperwork.

What info source is providing the definitive information on how the cars were equipped?

Thanks Marlin. Finding things on FB is damn difficult with all the different groups.... Esp when I was looking for an ad.

I'm not claiming to own the HH car, I just want to prevent someone from making a $30k mistake. According to all my research, no one can produce this VIN as referenced. All the information on the supposed HH VIN is second hand, I don't go by second hand info. All I'm doing is documenting everything I have found so far. Nothing is telling me I do or don't have the HH car yet. Anybody can tell anyone any VIN number.

Believe me, half of me doesn't want to own the HH car. I don't want the responsibility of bringing it back to its original state.

So, was N620776 originally a 4 speed or auto? Also, how about a picture of the top gutter track on the side of the roof by the top of the windshield.
