Re: COPO Chevelle plants
Someone on Chevelles.com brought this forum to my attention. This is a list of questions for the 3 copo experts Dan, John, & Stefano
1. How many 1969 Copo Chevelles were built? I hear that the estimate is 323.
2. How many of those are Yenko Copo Chevelles? Only 95 vins are listed on the registry.
3. Since all Yenko Chevelles were built in Baltimore does that mean all Copo Chevelles were also built in Baltimore?
4. What about the 1 verified Copo Chevelle that was built in California. How could it be a COPO and not be built in Baltimore?
5. What vehicles did the Kansas City plant produce in 1969? My info says Chevelles and El Caminos
6. Didn't Kansas City start stamping the vin on the oil filter boss instead of the engine pad? Let's hear from other Kansas City car owners on this subject.
7. This motor is a 427 and it is obviously stamped as Kansas City. What car did it come in? Corvette motors are St Louis right?
8. Since Ed @ copo.com has closed his site & registry is any car still considered certified?
9. If a car has a CE (warranty) block should it still be considered a real COPO?
10. What test can be done on a block to verify that it isn't a restamp?
I am sure you guys can answer these questions easily.
Thank-you
