Default Los Angeles Built 69 Camaros

Does anyone know of documented big block Camaros built with the L78, L89 or L72 COPO options exist? I'm sure that there were L78's built but what about the L89 and L72?

Clill,
Did you have any other than the Red and Blue L78 Rags?
Were both Van Nuys Built Camaros as I have not seen any signs of prior Fire Damage to the Blue one I have [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

No known LA COPO's, only rumors.
I know of another LA L89 car, it was a magazine test car.

Young,
When you get a chance, I'd be interested in some of the #'s from your car. You can drop me a line at [email protected]. Thanks.
