CANADIANCOPO CAMARO

[Belair62]

If I remember correctly...Delco Freedom battery was one of the first to be "maintenance free"...in other words you didn't have the caps to top off the electrolyte.

[COPO PETE]

Was'nt the middle of May to the first of June considered the time frame that the Camaro started getting the sidepost batteries instead of the top post????? I remember seeing Frank Naples car with a side post and questioning it, and was told since it was a June car, it could come with a side post. Dave,... you got a private message!

Pete i have no ZV7 [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
but two set of tires PL5 and ZP1 [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

ZV7 is not for the Freedom battery delete. It is an internal code relating to use of a particular transmission. Here is the breakdown:
ZV6 = M20
ZV7 = M21
ZV9 = M40
ZW1 = M22

Thanks Ed
View like this...
ZV6 = M20
ZV7 = M21
ZV9 = M40
ZW1 = M22
It's very logic
But for what GM Canada show the two code on the same paper.

RPO M22= 4-speed H.D. transmission close ratio and
IC ZW1 = 4-speed H.D. transmission close ratio

RPO PL5= F70-14-4 PR tire -HWY-OE-B/wall white lettering.
IC ZP1 = C.O.P.O Tires
RPO for Regular production option and
IC for Internal Code
This IC code it's only for canadian COPO or All USA and CDN COPO.
This one is the best from GM
RPO ZP3 Regular Production Option Special Order Paint and
two dash - - on the tag for Paint Deleted.(USA and CDN)

- - does not mean paint delete, it just means a non-standard color for the model year that they had no code for.

Ok it's cool like this
<font color="blue">RPO ZP3 Regular Production Option Special Order Paint and
two dash - - on the tag for non-standard color for the model year .(USA and CDN)
</font>
On a Baltimore or Norwood B/Sheet a code - in a box equal to
no / nothing / N/A / non or another term. ???

Our documentation shows the PL5 (Uniroyals) but no ZP1. We have the ZV6 for the M20.

Roger, Yenko ads called his Chevells Hugger Orange but Chevy lit calls it Monaco Orange same color used for Corvette was also called Monaco Orange

[copo9566aa]

Keith what's year your GM Canada documentation
My first letter is dated 1995 and not show ZP1
But with the correction in 1997 GM Canada ad the code ZP1.

More popular color like Hugger orange win..
Monaco Orange for many people it's unknown.

In Mopar the name Plum Crazy VS In-violet - Plum win...
Hemi Orange VS Tor-Red - Hemi Orange Win..
Panther Pink VS Moulin Rouge Panther Pink Win.. etc
But the real name for a purple 70 'Cuda this is In-Violet
Yenko.net show Hugger Orange (code 72)for 69 Chevelle Yenko
This is correct...Yes or No
This is just a small detail but
