COPO 9511

[Schonyenko2]

I'd like to comment on the importance of this discussion. I, and I think may others have believed that you could order any rear ratio on a 69 Nova through 4.88 RPO. Not in 70 unless it was a COPO deuce.
The discussion now is that in 69 any ratio higher than 3.55 was a COPO order. That becomes significant as we all know how the COPO designation is thrown around to try to increase value.
The other issue relates to judging these cars, and what is now going to be correct, and accepted.
Is this an actual COPO specialty item, or is it determined to be like -- special pnt which is interpreted as a "special order" not a COPO order even though the order process is similar?

This is an important determination to make. I/we would appreciate any input anyone here might have. We want to get it right.
