Default Re: COPO *Big cars*

Back in '67 I was in the show room at Nurse Chev-Olds in Whitby, Ontario. The salesman was doing cartwheels trying to get me to order a 427-435HP Biscayne. He claimed that this was the only way you could get the engine other than the Corvette. There was no mention of COPO or anything like that. I never saw any literature on the subject and never ordered the car. It is just a curiosity. Nurse did sell quite a few 302 Z/28 cars in those days as well as a red COPO Camaro in '69. They were home to the UOP Shadow race team when ever they raced at Mosport.
