Default Re: uncommon copo found

I understand that the special cars do not follow any set sequencing. What I thought was that the "normal" ordered cars may have. So after the order was accepted by fisher (body number assigned) they would have been built relatively quickly. So we could determine more or less when the COPO orders were accepted by Fisher by comparing the COPO body numbers to regular cars body numbers.
I will post this topic on CRG to see what JohnZ has to say about it.

The copo cars were not built 'quicker' or 'special' from the research that I've done. Don ordered the first batch of copo novas in early Dec. of '69, and they were not built until the last week of May '70. I think there was a strike in there somewhere, but even so, they didn't get preferential treatment. Let us know what JohnZ's reply is, it is interesting to learn about the scheduling details within the GM plants.
