Copo Camaro

[Chazbo]

I need some help, I recently bought a 1969 Camaro with no history to it, It was an x44 car from Norwood, with a 4 speed transmission. the car has been gutted and put back together with the wrong interior, and drive train. I recently ran the vin and it comes up saying the car is a copo camaro. I find it hard to believe but it has some features of a copo. 3/8" fuel line, 4 speed transmission, power disc brakes, larger hole in firewall, cowl induction hood. How can i find out if this car truly is a copo or just a regular camaro?

I suggest you read this. Post details of the car on CRG. Someone will respond.

The VIN indicates a COPO? Is it a Canadian car?

[Chazbo]

No it’s not Canadian it was a garnet red car originally

I would get the shipping documents from NCRS / Musclecar docs and provide the body #/ order #. Is the VIN close to and COPOs listed in our registry?

What dealer? I'm getting a feeling you are just playing games. You ask questions but already know the answers.

Chazbo…. I have read your information and we are here to help you, but the proof needs to be provided by yourself in order to get help from the great folks of this site and being limited with your information shows up a red flag on our behalf we are here to help, but we are not here to help document something that you can’t help with .

Steve
Not trying to be funny or anything generally do not have anything other the car was sold to Hess Chevy in Texas and the vin ends in 640592 which falls between cars shown on this site. I literally have nothing else for this car, no paperwork or anything

Chazbo, you said “car has been gutted and put back together with the wrong interior, and drive train”. While it may have been born a COPO (which is hard to prove without documentation), the factory part that mattered the most to make it a COPO isn’t there anymore. However, posting pictures of the VIN and Trim tag might be helpful. Also, photos of the gutted car with markings or stamps of any kind might also help. JMHO.

Here are pictures

which website did you run the VIN on that said it was a COPO? I know of one site that is falsely identifying pretty much any Camaro VIN inquiry as a possible Copo. Cant think of it of the top of my head right now

I see a small block heater box and no hole that I can see where the cowl induction solenoid would attach to the firewall.

Pictures are very dark. Take a picture of the firewall behind the brake booster.
Thanks

Let me know if you need to see something else

Doesn't look like it has the ZL2 hole above the bulkhead. Aside from COPO question, you might want to check the hidden VIN under the wiper panel (top of cowl on passenger side) to see if it matches the VIN plate. It appears that the top of the dash panel was replaced, which is usually due to past rust issues, yet you have a perfectly crisp VIN plate which might suggest something was changed/replaced there.

[Kurt S]

It was not a COPO.
I agree with Jonesy - every VIN you enter into that site says it's a COPO....

[Sean]

That is not even close to a COPO. Wishful thinking sorry to be blunt.

[Jonesy]

I just entered my 69 Camaro RS/Ss 350 VIN in and it came back It’s a possible COPO ZL1. So I guess I got an Azure Turquoise RS ZL1. That’s gotta be a 1 of 1:beers::bs:
