RPO ?
What is RPO K02? Something about a fan?
I'm looking at an original sales invoice for a '68 SS 'velle with an L34, M40, and a 3.55 G80 - with option K02. I'm curious what this option was for, it's one of several unusual options on this car.

Re: RPO ?
While I'm at it, how about a '69 Camaro with the following steering options:
N33: Comfortilt steering wheel N40: Power steering N44: Special steering equip. What is N44?

Re: RPO ?
http://www.camaros.org/options.shtml#RPOSpreadsheet lists all the RPO's.
That was a loaded car! But notice no console, guages, speed warning. Basic loaded cruiser, aka Mom's Car.

Re: RPO ?
My 68 Chevelle has KO2, sometimes called heavy duty cooling. Mine was sold in Alabama. It could be an added option for towing, southern heat, high trafic areas in heat, etc.
