I was a parts guy for Chevy stores back in the 60's and early 70's. What a great time it was to work in a dealership!
Anyhow, one of the stores I worked for was Marve Minneman Chevrolet in Austintown, Ohio. We were putting 427's in Chevelles and building 454 Novas and Camaros right in our shop. I also recall 3 1969 Camaros showing up very late in the year, not long before the 19701/2 Camaro debuted. These 3 Camaros were orange, yellow and green, all with dog dish caps, induction hoods, rock crushers, and 427/425 big blocks.
Also there was a white 1969 SS Camaro owned by a guy nicknamed "Willie Mac" whose engine was totally unaffected by magnets that came from the same store.
I was just curious if this rings any bells with anyone?

Another COPO sold at Marv Minneman still resides in Ohio at the home of Mark Hassett. His Hugger Orange Deuce is one of the rare Hurst/Campbell conversions that still sports a vintage set of Hurst wheels.

Here's a picture of Mark's Deuce.
