Welcome to 427 COPO Camaro.com
The COPO Camaro was what Chevrolet built to get a High Performance 427 Cubic Inch 425 Horsepower Big Block Mark IV engine into an assembly line factory Camaro. These COPO Camaros were limited production and did not show up in the official factory or showroom brochures. Most of us know about the 1969 COPO and Yenko Camaros, but the story is more interesting. These COPO Camaros were "Special High Performance Units"
The 427 COPO Camaro was built for a purpose:
to Rule The Street and to compete and win at the Drag Strip.
Initially accepted by the AHRA and enventually by the NHRA,
427 COPO Camaros left their mark in Muscle Car History!
The most commonly known COPO Camaro is the Yenko Camaro, which was supervised by
new
car dealer / sports car racer Don Yenko. COPOs were built before and after this legendary 1969 model.
Here are some pages about the Yenko and COPO Camaros:
The soon to be released "COPO Book" will offer full color photography of all these highly collectible models and
will also provide a history of the COPO Camaro and its production mates, the COPO Novas and COPO Chevelles.
Both the iron block L-72 427 and the all aluminum ZL-1 COPO Camaros will be featured and discussed in this book.
The target price for this book is $29.99 or less.
This new "COPO Book" is scheduled to be released in Fall / Winter 2011
