Default Re: 1970 Camaro L78 GM of Canada docs

From what I have been told:
500 was the number that was "supposed" to be made to satisfy race rules. It is believed that chevrolet "fudged" and only produced enough to convince the judges at a race in Texas that they were "production". They placed some in the parking lot and some in dealers.
Ford was complainng at a previous race that the 70 Z28 did not meet spec with the spoiler as it was not production.
Chevy "passed" and the judges let the Z race.

So, there would never have been any 1970 L78 COPO cars made, it was a Z thing......

AGAIN, not to take anything from this car, but the spoiler is incorrect. But, spoilers are easy to chage!

Great car, REAL car,and a fair price.....
