Yes there was a puppet like show called Supercar. Had a guy that was called Dr. Beaker. I will be 50 in a few months, and I knew about the show. I guess I am officialy an "old fart" now. Damn.

No sweat Anthony, I'm 41--the early stages of "old fartdom."

I know the basis of this site are the COPO 427s, ZL1s, Yenkos, Bergers, Danas...etc. These are mostly 427s with an advertised HP rating of 425. Going by the HP rating alone, would the LS6 Chevelles and L88 Corvettes be concidered Supercars? These both had a higher advertised HP rating than the L72 cars.

In my opinion: HELL YES! Who among us would not consider an LS6 Chevelle a Supercar? An L88 Corvette not a Supercar??? Oh man, don't go there.

actually i agree with you and 427TJ, but the fact of the matter is, when people in this business refer to a "supercar" we all really know what that means.

Ok I get it ...not insulted at all I have a few Chevelles two of them with Big Blocks and one of those at well over 500 HP and I do drive them and feel great when I do Not because they have a Super car dealers name on it but because I built it myself .
I was just Curious at what The meaning of a Super car was ..and from what i get from it The meaning could be a COPO could be that 67 Camaro in the Baldwin Motion Add
Because thats how they advertised it.
but on this site it is the few,rare dealer prepped cars and that is ok by me. does'nt mean i can't stay and feel free to speak because we all do have the greatest main interests FAST CHEVY"S...and that is all that really matters to me

not only in this forum, but in "laymans" terms we know what a "supercar" is.

By the way . . . as far as I can tell, this web site doesn't cater to only COPO cars. This web site caters to all Chevrolet High Performance Cars . . . and a big

to the Clarys for their true devotion to these cars and this site

A thoughtful compliment to the Clarys' and I agree 100%.

One a similar note, I'll propose a big

to Matt and his staff at GMMG for keeping the Supercar tradition alive.
