Re: Copo Production & Survivors
All the Ontario COPO Chevelles that I have info on were built in Baltimore. None in Oshawa. We found out about the COPO deal in January or February of '69 through a friend who worked in the GM Oshawa main office. Three of us bought one of these cars but I know of no others that were bought in the Oshawa area. Belmont Chev-Olds in Toronto, Central in London and a few other dealers seemed to know about these cars as well. The dealer we bought through had to take the COPO 9566 number and check to find out that it was available. There seemed to be no problem ordering these cars IF you knew about them. No one at GM was waving a big flag or anything like that to advertise.
