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!

These COPO Camaros were so significant, that they inspired
the creation of the 2012 ZL1 Camaro! Click here to see more!

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:

I have a soon to be released "COPO Book" that will have full color photography of all these highly collectible models and will also provide a history of the COPO Camaro and other ultra high performance Chevrolet models.
Both the iron block L-72 427 and the all aluminum ZL-1 COPO Camaros will be featured and discussed in this book.

With the new ZL1 Camaro and the COPO Camaro from SEMA 2011,
it looks as if I'll have to include these new models along with the originals from the 60's!!

The target price for this book is $29.99 or less.

The new "COPO ZL1 Book" release date To Be Announced.

This new "COPO ZL1 Book" will be exclusively available at our secure online store:Vettura Publishing Ltd.
Updates will be emailed out to subcribing members, as we have done in the past with our other product:
Corvette Racing Legends, the story of the L-88 option package.

With the increased number of requests for a digital downloadable copy of the COPO ZL1 Camaro book,
we are considering creating this book in a downloadable format. This downloadable format would allow the
reader to view all the images in a much higher resolution that what could be created with a printed product.

Only a few hundred COPO ZL1 Books are going to be printed,
but perhaps an unlimited number of digital copies will be available.

Please provide your email as contact information
so you won't miss out on your opportunity to purchase the first edition of this book.

We look forward to providing you with COPO ZL1 Camaro updates here on this site, and also via e-mail !

Thanks!
