    The car's Owner is Jeff Makovich. Jeff’s had this car since 2019. Jeff shares his the details to the Double COPO and how knew about this car when he was a kid, and he followed this car for years and had a Buddy call him who shared he bought some cars and when Jeff heard about it, he bought it, and it was THE CAR he’s been looking.

    A double COPO is twice as nice! This Camaro looks and sounds amazing, as well. Its car story and Mr. Makovich's efforts to track it down over the years until he could make it his own, is inspiring to me and probably to all of us in the car community, too. Thanks, Lou!

    When I was a kid, starting at 13 years old, I bought a 68 Malibu and hunted every swap meet and newspaper ad for parts to make it a poor man’s Super Sport. Tribute now, then a clone. Did that few times and was mostly influenced by my older brother who did own back to back true Super Sports. It’s funny how those SS emblems and parts seemed more valuable than gold to me way back then. And how now as an older gentleman I would actually much rather had the chance to put in a Central Office Production Order

    The problem with most Camaros is that the VIN doesn't identify much. Usually just "V8". Engine block stamping, data tags, etc, get manufactured all the time. If it ain't in the VIN, just figure the odds...
