------I first saw Gradys COPO at Quaker City at the "Supercar Showdown" (circa 92/93 ?). I was there with Red Alert, but pretty much forgot what I was there for that weekend because all I could think of was Gradys 69. My favorite color combo on my favorite Chevelle year. Could it get any better??? ........Bill S

Bill, I remember that weekend well. I had actually driven the car to that event. I was also in envy of your car and what you were doing with it. Made a quite an impression on me.

Only if the General had've built Copo Chevelles as PST cars!.

Could you imagine a scenario in late-1969 where you would go new car shopping at your local Chevrolet dealership for a Big Block Chevelle and see on the lot this left-over 1969 COPO 427 Chevelle while new 1970 LS-6 454 Chevelles are coming in on new car transporters? Now bear in mind, you probably wouldn't realize how rare and valuble the '69 COPO would be back then 'til much later in life. My gosh, that really would have been a tough decision! If similarly priced, I don't know which one I would have picked!
