Product Description
1/18 ACME 1969 Chevrolet COPO Camaro (Black with Unique Yellow Houndstooth Interior) Diecast Car Model
Finished in a deep Tuxedo Black paint, this 1969 Chevrolet COPO Camaro is the only COPO Camaro that was ordered with the rare code 714 yellow houndstooth interior! The model features a fully plumbed and wired COPO 427 engine, opening doors, hood, and trunk, a fully detailed interior with folding front seats, a fully detailed chassis and period correct Wide Tread tires mounted on black steel wheels with polished hubcaps and so much more!
Chevrolet’s 1969 Camaro COPO story is a classic case of Detroit’s clandestine ingenuity in the muscle era. General Motors maintained a corporate displacement policy that effectively barred engines over 400 cubic inches from appearing in the Camaro on the regular order sheet. Chevrolet’s engineers and a network of performance-minded dealers navigated around that constraint using the Central Office Production Order (COPO) system.
The Chevrolet 1969 COPO Camaros were intentionally designed to appear as a base model economy car. No Z/28 stripes, no SS badging, no RS hidden headlights, just plain jane hubcaps on a plain looking body. But, under an unassuming hood, lurked a monster 427 V8 engine that pumped out 425 horsepower!
