Default Re: Brents 1969 Hugger Orange Copo Found ?

Again, it is very common to see a larger spread in BDY #" vs Vin#'s when compared to other COPO Camaros. It was common practice to hold a batch of these special cars in the body bank untill all the special components were on hand to run these cars with any hold up in production.
They may have been waiting on BE's, double COPO stuff, or even built up 427's ?? These were little used items when comapred to the rest of the Camaro production.
If you study the spread between BDY#'s and Vin#'s on your average 6 cyl/ and or low HP V8 cars, which there were hundreds built each day, there is not that large of a diff in the spread of the two #'s. Basically because the components to built these cars were more common to these basic drivers and the inventory levels were high enough based on the larger number of orders place by dealers to keep the lines running on schedule.
