There was a friend of my brothers that bought a new one off of Connors. Silver and black.The last time I talked to him he still had it, and at that time said he would never let it go.We liked it so well back then that we took our 69 Z-28( that I had bought off of my brother John) w/the 302 in it, yanked it out and stuck it in the corner.Then tried to duplicate his. Bought a new crate motor 427/425 and put it in the Z. Man, what a difference.I drove it back and forth to high school. With the 4.88 gear we had in it, and an aluminum flywheel,it ran 12 flat the couple of times I had it to National Trails. I still wish I had that Z, as it was that ugly Gold with black stripes and a vinyl top.And it was a Rally Sport.I doubt alot were sold like it...

Here is a couple of photos of my Berger 9561 COPO Camaro. The first one was taken when the original owner was racing it at Martin 131 Dragway, the other one was taken last year, also at Martin. The car was also ordered with COPO 9737 Sports Car package. I can't seem to get both pics on one post, may have to do two posts.

Dana,
Nice ground clearance
Was that front color-keyed bumper part of the 9737 option?
and 69 non-SS,
The Rhode Island dealer was Norwood Chevrolet, Post Road, Warwick, Rhode Island,,,dealer zone-code 32-555,,They sponsored some Funny Cars,,,and I think Ralph Ridgeways 69' C /MP & D/MP Camaro...as well as a host of Chevelles, Camaro's and Nova's.
Big hitters at Connecticut Dragstrip and New England Dragway.
