TH400 CX - RogerD's COPO/Dick Harrell Chevelle
1 Attachment(s)
Picked up a real TH400 CX tranny in late December (thanks to Bob Harris, Camaro Specialties) . . .
http://chevelleforum.org/attachment....1&d=1604624283 Weather forecast for last Friday (Jan 20th) was too good to pass up so I took a VC day. By 8:30AM, Chevelle up on blocks in my drive, me on my back pulling the mild mannered TH400 installed in 2010 . . . By mid afternoon, the fresh OH'd TH400 CX was in and buttoned up with fresh fluid going in. Took a spin late afternoon through digital radar traps nearby, odometer was dead on . . . Throttle response :) Oh yeah, just like 40+ years ago . . . :D Local policeman Waving as I passed by . . . |
Great looking Chevelle! Blends in nicely.

You should see his car in person and talk with him about his love affair with this car .Its an amazing car and even more amazing story behind it.
|
Wait so is this car a real COPO?
