For sale in our Dallas Fort Worth showroom is a 1969 Chevrolet
Camaro Copo Tribute. Over the years, COPO has become synonymous
with Chevy's monster-displacement Camaros. It's a term that is
still used today by Chevrolet for the purpose-built drag racing
Camaros, which are released year after year, just 69 units at a
time. But what does COPO really mean? An acronym for "Central
Office Production Order," COPO was the method used by dealers in
the know who could use it to order options, or a combination of
options, that weren't specifically listed on the order forms. The
most famous use was when dealers used the COPO system to circumvent
GM's 400-cu-in limit on anything that wasn't a full-size car or a
Corvette. If you knew what dealers to go to and who to talk to, you
could have used the COPO system to order a factory installed 427 in
a 1969 Camaro or Chevelle. This COPO Tribute was done up in fresh
Yellow paint with black interior. The engine is a 454 block with
427 internals, that is backed up by a 4 speed manual transmission.
This combo packs the punch you expect from big block in a small
bodied car! To view this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Copo Tribute in
