Default Re: 1969 Chevelle COPO 427

Frank Castro and Joe Huestis,,,,,

Yes, that is a 1969 Dover photo,,,,,,,but that Chevelle (1968 B/S) was not
Frank Russo's Chevelle.

Frank Russo's car was an original 1969 Chevelle SS396 (375 HP), 4-speed.
Bought out of Carmel, New York,,,,,'Putnam Motor Sales'
Dark blue original color...

Frank also ran in B/S in 1969,,,,,,,and a solid Class Winner running around 12.60's...
Went into SS/E in 1970,, and did pretty good at the 1970 NHRA Summernationals at York US Drag-O-Way, in Pennsylvania.
Won a couple of rounds in class, before breaking.

And here it is,,,,,
