Yep Pete, here's another cool one. This is from the July 21st edition of the London Free Press. Note the Camaro on the left. Looks like a COPO to me. ............Bill

Re: 427/4 speed bench seat 68 Pontiac Strato Chief's?
Great photo Astrojet. I can almost see the GOLD 427 emblem on the fender (see attached). All 427 Pontiacs from 66 to 69 had this emblem. As "car crazy" kids we would always check full sized Pontiacs in town for the Gold 427 emblem and if the car had one we would check to see if it had a 4 speed (Ha Ha). Here's the breakdown on large engines from 65 to 69. 65- Super-Flame 409/340&400hp, 66- Jet-Flame 427/390&425hp, 67- Jet Flame 427/385hp, 68- Jet Flame 427/385hp, and 69- 427 Astro-Jet 427/335&390hp. The classified ad from Wheelspin News 1969 of the 67/ 425hp Laurentian that I posted earlier make me think it may have been a special order car out of Oshawa. Thanks for starting this thread Todd. Cnd. Pontiacs don't get much discussion.....Bill
