1969 427 COPO Barn find

Kenny
COPO 9566 used the 14" SS wheel
and COPO 9562 used the 15" Rally that I think was part of 9737 sports car conversion.
on 15" cars both of those COPO codes were on the BS lower left

Thank you. That clears it up.

The SS wheels were standard with this COPO Chevelle.

As for what its worth ………… original, restored or otherwise …. its an old Muscle Car and its worth what someone is willing to pay for it God Bless you all

Don't put 100% trust in a Canadian documented car.That only documents that particular VIN,not the actually vehicle that is attached to it today.

Isn’t that true of any docs?

Absolutely,which is why one type of document shouldn't be held higher among the rest.

On that note, you should also pay the fee to order yourself a new report. GM Canada Vintage Vehicle Services now puts their corporate seal on documentation, but older Canadian documentation is as easy to forge as any other document.

Sometimes it's nice to find a unrestored, unmolested original car with known history that hasn't been passed around endlessly over the past 50 years.

That's very true imo, but a friend always said hed rather have a car w alot of owners because when they own it a short time they usually take care of the car and dont neglect it,and usually they've paid good money for it ..people that own cars for 30 40 50 years always let then sit unattended for most of the time and they are not usually running and are full of mice and mold etc, mostly because the original owner doesnt have alot invested in it ...kind of makes sense

[chevmal]

I'm just saying that with a original car with known history, You don't have to worry about it being rebodied, restamped vin. numbers or any previous damage from wrecks or rust. etc.
