Re: COPO?
Check for the rear brake proportioning valve on the driver's side subframe, also look for the cowl hood relay piercing on the firewall, those would be must haves if it's a real COPO car.

Re: COPO?
Which is why I referenced 'L72 copo', not the ZL1's.

Re: COPO?
Doesn't match any of the ZL-1 vins. I'll see if I can get more details. Where exactly are the hidden vins. Also, where should the relay piercing be on the firewall? Its probably someones attempt at making a big block car but you never know?
Thanks, Mike

Re: COPO?
Mike - The relay priecing is right below the power booster for the power brakes. Also, one of the hidden vin's is were the heater blower moter is stamped on the firewall.

Re: COPO?
Mike the CI piercing I referenced is on the firewall, up and to the right of the heater box. No where near the brake booster. See the shiny silver relay to the left of the cowl air cleaner in this pic.
 Look for a punctured mounting hole there. Also, if the car has a factory A/C suitcase on the firewall, it's not a COPO, regardless of which way the evaporator tubes bend. No solid lifter engines had A/C, even in the 396 L-78 variety. Let us know what you find.

Re: COPO?
Thanks guys for the info. Can you usually see the hidden vin without taking things apart? No69X-44 I've seen the thread about your car and the photo of the hidden Vin. Is that behind the passenger wheel well?
