CruxGNZ Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 A local board here has a guy that has some pretty sweet (and very rare) cars in his family! Check it out: Brewcitymuscle.com !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I thought COPO cars came with 427s, and no badging, or SS hood. http://popularmechanics.com/automotive/sub_coll_vintage/1997/1/68_chevy_camaro/print.phtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 COPO cars can come in many different ways. I know of a COPO Camaro that was ordered with a 6 cylinder, automatic, tangerine color vinyl interior, and tangerine paint as a dealer promo unit. COPO is just a special, special order, car although the term has become synonymous with special muscle cars. COPO stands for Central Office Production Order. This is the process used by Chevrolet (and other divisions of GM) for internal orders for limited production of non-standard cars. The Pace Car Camaros that actually paced the Indy 500 (because of modifications needed to the cars to meet the special requirements of reliability and safety for race duty) were ordered via the COPO process. The COPO process was also used to build special show cars, and sometimes, for special competition-oriented cars. However, the COPO process was used most often for mundane special fleet orders and doesn't necessarily indicate a high-performance vehicle.
