VIN for COPO Camaro?
 

I have a friend who thinks he may have found a 69 COPO Camaro. It is a x44 car, factory BB heater box, 12 bolt rear, but the VIN is a 6 cylinder car VIN (12337).

Did the factory COPO cars have 6 cylinder car VIN?
Thanks.

Don't think so. What is the code on the rear?

check the hidden vins. also what is the body # on the trim tag?

Re: VIN for COPO Camaro?
 

Good point ! In Sweden it´s likely to find a supercar hidden behind a 6-cylinder VIN because of the high importtaxes on cars in the seventies and eighties.
They would bring the supercar into the country as junk, then find a smashed one of the same type and take its identity.

Thanks for the responses. The car doesn't have a BE rear. The car is actually 700 miles from me, so I will pass any info on to my friend.

So I guess that a 427 COPO Camaro could have a 6 cylinder vin? Are there any documented out there?

I'm a Firebird/TA guy. I guess I would have assumed a COPO car would get an 8 cylinder vin?

Rick,
No factory 8 cylinder option 1969 COPO Camaros have been found to have 6 cyl Vins from the factory.

Thanks Stefano, I wouldn't think a 427 car would have a 6 cyl vin from the factory.

But there is one original drivetrain Copo with a convert vin!! The Copo was bought in original unrestored condition, tired and with original drivtrain in '85, with a 124679N vin! Strange but true!

Sorry for jumping on this thread But I currently have a 69 copo camaro, as far as I know it is real, and it has a vin that comes back as a convertible. Is there any way to verify the origins of the car? Ive been searching but havent found any luck. I was told this was the site to find the best info. Any help is greatly appreciated.
