Default Re: Mecum Kissimmee Gold 69 COPO - Thoughts?

I worked at Belmont Chev Olds in Toronto. My partner and I drove to Oshawa to meet the General Sales Mgr for Chevrolet and he gave us the COPO #'s to order Camaros and Chevelles. We ordered 10 Camaros and 5 Chevelles. This gold on green was an ordered car specifically for this customer. I tried to talk him out of the color combo but the customer is always right... right? Cheers, hotrodmac

Do you remember any of the Copo Chevelles from Belmont having drum brakes? I have Canadian docs showing the 9737 option on a few Canadian sold Copo Chevelles with power drum no disc listed. Perhaps for racing?

Do you have a copy of the Canadian doc? GM of Canada sometimes uses the wrong decyphering code book for making the docs. For example, the GM of Canada docs dated 1993 for my 455 HO Formula shows the correct explanation for K77 as &quot;Unitized Ignition&quot; option. The 2011 GM of Canada docs show K77 as &quot;90 Amp Alternator&quot;. I spoke with George Z at GM of Canada and he said that they have to use the correct year code book to end up with the correct documents. He offered to redo the 2011 version so it would be correct. Maybe that is why your docs are showing drims instead of discs? Could be a later code interpretation?
