Mussallem Motors is my local dealer. It is in Maple Ridge. Near Vancouver. It is still business.

Do you know Ken Winn the GM ?

I have talked to him, but have not bought anything off him.

Ken is a very good guy. He's been there since the 60'! He was there when my copo car came in. ( They had two copo camaros. A hugger orange car and my daytona yellow car ). He was kind enough to write me a letter on their letterhead about my car and the name of the salesman , etc. People like Ken are generally not around anymore.

This dealer also sold a Lemans blue automatic COPO chevelle which now resides in Oak Harbour Washington.

Randy,
I was not aware of any other copo cars they had sold besides my car and a hugger orange camaro. That's good information. What else do you know about any " super cars " they have been involved with and or are around still ?

[Randy K]

I was told be the owner that use to own your car that they only sold the 3 copo cars.I was also told that the dealer tried to order some more copos but could not any more. I know of 4 other copos that were sold new in British Columbia, 3 chevelles and 2 camaros which includes the camaro I own. Most of these cars have gone the US.

[SMGCO]

Randy, Again real good information.

Which prior owner are you refering to ? ( I have personally spoken to the original owner Jack Euwda ).

What's new up there in BC ?

Regards, Steve

My 70 Z-28 was sold new at Mussalem. I think they sold quite a few performance cars there.
When the weather gets nice I'm taking it on its inaugural (sp?) voyage to Mussalem.

Article in local newspaper on Friday announcing that Musselum Motors was going out of business. They probably sold their property for a bucket of money and figured it was more than they would make selling cars over the next few years.

Any of you guys from this post still active here ? This car mentioned above belonged to me at one time . I've been trying to track her down off and on for the last 20 years . I always wanted to know what became of it and was pleasantly surprised to see it in Washington , then noticed the dates of this thread lol . I did however do a VIN search lately and it is still reg'd in Washington state , as of March 2015 . Anyone here know who owns it now ? I bought this car ( in 1978 ) when I turned 17 and we had a lot of great times together , great memories and would be happy to see it again ( hopefully , nicely restored ) .

Thanks !!
