1969 COPO all matching on ebay

You will almost never find a sheet on a Norwood car.

Hello Charley!! I am the owner of the Dusk Blue COPO and I just want to "Thank You" for your knowledgable information. You are so correct on the built sheet question. I spent two days with a fellow that used to work at Norwood and build these cars. He said most of the time they would just stick a rolled up build sheet in the right sub-frame end, it would blow out first time driven or would blow out during shipping process if they put one on the car at all!! Again thanks for being a friend to the Camaro world!!! Thanks again, Dennis Lasseter Jr.

Roger Dean car... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

POP and waranty book looks like other I've seen from Dean. Would love to see a Roger Dean badge on the rear of this car.

Hey, Oh I know what you mean. If you know someone that has a nice Roger Dean dealer sticker or emblem I would love to have one!! I used to own another COPO 9 body numbers from this car that was shipped to Roger Dean and the POP looked just like this one, but it should cause this is the original one! These old cars are just so cool! Thanks Dennis Jr.

Roger Dean used a die cast badge. Here is a shot on my 68 for ref.

They sold a lot of Hi-Po cars esp Corvettes. I know of 4 69 C.O.P.O's from Dean and have heard about a ZL-1 that was possibly in the showroom also.

I also have the book ...Not many other performance dealers have their own story book...LOL

USN Lt. Roger Dean was a combat flight instructor who loved to haul a$$ for our country ..long before his Hi-PO Chevrolets.

I have a neat pic of him posing beside his plane with half the landing gear ripped off... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

Hello and thank you so much for at least being able to see one of his Dealer Emblems. Our family dealership went thru maybe 3 different designs over 30 years, first metal, then plastic, then to the decals like most all use today. I wish I could find one of those emblems for the old COPO!!! I cannot remember who I had heard Roger Dean was a silent partner with or maybe just a really good dealer friend that had some pretty big pull with GM back in the day. Thank you so much again for the photo of the Dealer Emblem from Dean!!!!!!

Dennis, was this the special ordered blue car that was sold out of the owner's estate in New Jersey after he died?

If so, that was the same guy I bought my Hemi Charger from in 1987. He had a veritable zoo of rare musclecars stashed in his backyard. I still have some of the old yard photos.

Hey, no not this car, sorry! We bought it out of the original owners garage in West Virginia in 87. It never left W.V. from new until it was brought to our place in Tennessee that same year. Love those Chargers man!! Happy Holidays, Jr.
