http://amateurdebeauxchars.forumactif.com/t6070p30-recherche-infos-sur-chevelle-copo 576HP 10.75 1/4 mile. 9 pages of french,but it tells about the special order paint ZP2,cant imagiune why lemans blue on white was not a suggested color on a copo. Also previous owner claims the 427 emblems and silver stripes were on since new.

Paint color looks more like azure turquoise to me. But I think that was a 69 color too.

French people have forums too. Shocking eh? Use google translator.

I cut a guy off in Quebec this week.

Learned a few new words, Tabernac, Cris de something, modzee, something, trout de coup, (please excuse my spelling)

PS: in my defence a car put on the four way flashers in the slow lane so I pulled into the fast lane with lots of room.....and kept up with the car in front of me......the guy started waving his fist so I lost interest in getting back over.....

Back to Yenko Chevelle. Sorry to thread steal.

My wife speaks and writes French pretty well - so I called in my personal translator!

Underneath it all, the French thread was trying to learn like we are about what is orig with the copo chevelle cars.

why do you say it is special paint and trim? Is that on the trim tag or build sheet?

I would not go by the Canadian doc for the RPO code deffinitions as they are not correct on some.

pnt code 71 with white int is a nice/rare combo but don't see why it is special order?

Id be more than happy to compare factory paperwork [on parchment interior copo cars specifically] if you have any to share .

There is a beautiful Garnet red COPO up here in Canada with Parchment bucket interior and four speed.

I will PM the docs for reference.

Stumbled across it at a local car show.

Owner (has owned the COPO 42 years with no interest in selling it) was a super nice guy.

I PM'ed a link to pictures and he had the Canadian docs out during the show.

Owner has the buildsheet, I didn't see it.
