Fusion Motor Company proudly presents this rare UNRESTORED 1969
CHEVROLET CAMARO COPO!!!
This COPO is powered by a matching numbers 427ci L72 V8 mated to a
period-correct four-speed manual transmission and a 4.10:1 rear
axle.
Painted in the desirable factory Hugger Orange, the car shows very
well for a survivor car. The vehicle sat outdoors in Colorado for
many years until 2020.
Since then, the master cylinder, a wheel cylinder, brake lines,
spark plugs, points, battery, and headlight bulbs, have been
replaced; and additional service has included greasing the
suspension components, changing the fluids, balancing the tires,
rebuilding the carburetor, and setting the valve lash. Chambered
exhaust, matching numbers rear axle, 1 of 97 ordered through
Central Order Processing.
The stamping on the engine block matches the last eight characters
of the car's serial number: 9N644048, and an "MN" suffix is present
on the same pad.
Color-matched 14 inch steel wheels with chrome hubcaps are wrapped
with 215/75 Goodyear radial tires. Stopping power is provided by
power front disc brakes, with drums at the rear. The brake master
cylinder has been replaced along with both front brake lines and
one rear brake line. Suspension components were greased and brake
and steering fluids were replaced.

69-12437 - 1969 Camaro coupe body style

COPO stands for "Central Office Production Order" and refers to the
special-order system that dealers used in the 1960s to order
performance cars. In the late 1960s, several well-informed
Chevrolet dealers were able to use the company's vehicle ordering
system to create cars that otherwise would never have existed.
Specifically, a Camaro with a combination of performance equipment
that resulted in an NHRA Stock Eliminator class special. Their tool
was the Central Office Production Order (COPO) system, put in place
by Chevrolet so dealers with fleet customers like municipalities
and service operations could order batches of cars or trucks with
unique equipment or colors to meet their needs. Typically, trucks
and police cars were the system's bread and butter. Pretty
straightforward. Until a few drag racing enthusiasts got
involved.
