Default Re: how did yenko's come from factory?

Of the 3 COPO Chevelles that I knew personally when new, ours had the blue bow tie, Ken's had the SS and I believe the third said Malibu. I could be wrong on the third car. Unlike other companies, after '67 GM designed their cars to handle any engine combination that was on the shelf. About the only non standard parts were the ring and Pinion gear set. The COPO Chevelles were all 13637 models, Malibus, as were the SS396 cars. In '69 they were all Malibus with the SS396 or COPO options added. There was very little difference in price between a COPO Chevelle and a similarly equipped L78 SS396. The COPO package cost me $649.00. They were a pretty good deal. Rob describes a COPO car about right.
