Verifing COPO totals imported into Canada

[427strato]

I bought one of the 5 that went to B & A Chev in Toronto. That day, Oct. 1970, they had 2 green ones and 1 blue one to choose from in their compound on Avenue Rd. The salesman told me they had an orange one that went to Barrie and a yellow one which I can't remember what city it went to. Mine was green and one of the M22 cars. It also came with Uniroyal Tiger Paw whitewalls. I saw the blue one back at the dealership some months later and it was in for a new engine under warranty. It could have been the one I saw a couple of years later in Kitchener.

B&A got:

Fathom Grn/blk M22
Fathom Grn/blk M22
LeMans blu/blk M22
LeMans blu/blk M22
Exception order (paint)/blk M21

The exception Order was likely the H. Orange you mention.

Do you have the VIN of the one you had? If not, did it have factory 4:10s, ZN1 spring option? PM me, too much fraud on these puppies to broadcast details.

Cool discussion. Lance, wouldn't they all have been ordered with 4.10s?

4:10s was a G84 option and only 10 of the 30 Chevelles into Canada show it in their individual data, including 1 I ordered at Belmont. Other than that I don't recall what the standard issue rear gear was. I will check further, though, and see what I can come up with

Dave Mackay, my bud at Belmont that handled customers and paperwork, says 4:10s were indeed standard.
