Your new musclecar

Late 1968 we ordered a 1969 375/396 auto Nova from Wallace Chevy in N.J. for SS/DA then found out GM was going to offer a 69 427 Camaro that ran the same class. We tried to cancel the order but the car was already built, so we arranged for a friend to buy it for the street, then ordered 2 COPO 427 Camaros, 1 brown stick and a black auto. We never had much luck with the stick but ran the auto for a few years with some success.
I believe the stick was around $3600 and the auto $100 or so more. A little less than a killer trans costs today.
