Default Re: Fisher Broadcast Cards

The COPO title refers to Central Office Production Order...this was GM's channel for ordering fleet and special order cars and trucks. It was primarily used for non-standard options like special paint on a fleet of trucks...or perhaps HD equipment for police cars or taxi cabs, etc. Dealers like Yenko and Gibb also used this to side step the normal engine size limits to produce the cars that we all love to dream about today.

Any GM division could place a COPO order, thus the COPO heading on your Fisher Broadcast sheet...Chevrolet got the most attention in this area, primarily because of the performance cars they produced.

It would be great to see some stories about COPO vehicles from some of the other divisions...not sure I've ever seen anything like that before.
