And you call yourself a car guy?
COPO = Central Office Purchase Order, which was a loophole a few Chevy dealers used in the 60s to make a limited number of very special cars, which are worth huge money now. Read about COPO cars here. |

I would insist that the dealership replace the radio and speakers. WTF horrible noise was that? I had to turn the sound way down to even watch part of that. |

I would make the dealership give me a brand new C-8 with a lifetime warranty and free services or sue them for millions. |

Not the COPO of yesteryear, this is just a sales gimmick. You had to know someone back then, but this, just tell the salesman what you want.......meh.

I knew a guy back in the day that got a new 69 COPO 427 Camaro. He drove it for while on the street and it was a beast. He then turned to car into a legal NHRA Super Stock racer
