The owner and driver is Pierre St-Pierre.This is a COPO Camaro.Denis Pépin auto was a Chevrolet dealership in Québec city and ordered the COPO Camaro for mister St-Pierre who also was is main sponsor.Before the Camaro mister St-Pierre owned a 1967 Chevelle with a 396 And Denis Pépin auto was also the main sponsor.He raced mainly in the north east.He got all is parts directly from GM.He sold the Camaro a long time ago.My last meeting with mister St-Pierre was about three weeks ago.

i know this car, i was the engine builder of this car at the time,and later Pierre st-pierre sold it to me for $1500.00 in 1972-73, this car has been ordered as a B/SA from GM, the winter snow coumpound option was on it, i did blueprint the engine and i found that it was a 12.5/1 compression ratio and that there was a L-88 camshaft in it, we shiffed this engine at 8200 RPM, Denis Pépin received the car keys by mail at the time. i do not know if this car can be calculate as a regular copo.

12.5/1 eh... a little higher than L72. And of course the cam was differant. So i'm wondering if it was still ordered using the Copo process with these anomilies specified?.....
