Re: COPO question .
Pete,
The 1001HA code is for special paint and it was used for several years. Shows up on the window sticker too. Actually have seen a couple different suffixes... The other code is the paint code.

Re: COPO question .
COPO PETE & Kurt S.....I don't really agree fully with you......on the COPO code use of #1001HA...for 1969 anyway......I don't think it was use specific for Specail Order PNT, unless all RPO Colors were part of this also....I have quite a few 1969 COPO Chevelle build sheets and the Canada Receiving sheet, for lack of better words....with 10 COPO Chevelle's on it....I don't think it has anything to do with "ZP3 SPCL ORDR Paint colors, of Orange or Daytona Yellow(Bright Yellow)......All these build sheets/Canada receiving sheet have the 1001HA typed on them. In this format; B1795 1001HA 9566AA(FOUR SPEED),this is my COPO Chevelle,it's Fathom Green and a RPO color. The B1795 is the special order #FB1795, located on the build sheet and the bottom line of the trim tag.
COPO PETE....I believe your COPO Chevelle is B1072 1001HA 9566AA. Your SPEC ORDER #FB1072, should be there also, however the B1072, on your trim tag might have an "8" stamped on/near the "B" also?? for what ever that means, any input for the "8" anyone? ......I fully agree with your statement of Code "ZP3" being for Specail order Paint. mr70......Don't know what to say about the"GOLD Wheels" LOL Just my opion and/or input, though, regards,MIKE |

Re: COPO question .
Mike, you are correct. The 8 in my code is actually a "B". Never paid close enough attention I quess.Yours is the third car I've heard of with a "8" stamped in the firewall tag. Interesting is that the cars coming to Canada are always listed in vin order on the sheet. The one car here with the 8tag should have been on that sheet, but was not. GM of Canada had a tough time finding it to verify it for the owner. The other one I know of falls just past my sheet #'s so I can't tell if it was posted later or not. Makes me think the cars with the 8 were short on a certain part and set aside till the parts came in. The two cars here are 64 vin's apart. GM of Canada list ZP3 as special paint and the 1001HA as special paint.
Peter

Re: COPO question .
I edited the above post, using the UBB "code" tags, which maintains the same spacing as when you type it up (like I used on the trim tag I posted). Does that look pretty close? If not, just edit it, but leave the code tags.

Re: COPO question .
My orange COPO has a 9 in the right corner of the cowl tag and an 8 in the same place as everyone else has below the build date and the special order #.

Re: COPO question .
The numbers in the upper right and the "8" in the lower left of the trim tag, I have seen on other Chevelles besides COPOs. I have seen numbers in the upper right that looked like they were stamped on the trim tag after it was installed on the cowl.
Rob's Yenko Chevelle has an "S" for Midnight Green vinyl top. This is the only Grn top I have seen on a Yenko Chevelle. There does not seem to be as big of a data base of trim tag numbers collected for the Chevelle as for Camaros and Corvettes. I am not sure what the "8" is for. It had to be for something where the operation had to be done during Fisher body assembly before it went to the main assembly line. |

Re: COPO question .
Jim, did cars that were ordered for high level execs get any kind of special order treatment? I have a 72 Malibu 400 that was ordered for Zora Duntov's wife. It was shipped to the Tech Center in Warren, Mi. It was ordered through Penske Chevrolet.

Re: COPO question .
OK, here's my trim Tag info. Mine also has the # in the upper Right hand corner as well as the "8".
7>>>>>>>>>> ST69 13637 BAL283042 BDY TR 796 57 57 PNT 07CB1795 B M206750 8 The bottom line is the most important of all lines. Breaks down as follow; 07C:June third week B1795: is the special order #, refer to your build sheet, block #60 and #107 B: I have no idea M206750: all I know is that the 750 is hand written in block#24 and was on the fire wall, rear end top and frame, just before the right rear spring brace. The M20 isn't for my trans, because it's an M22 Car, block #7 shows "XI", which is for the M22. The Trim tag for the SS Chevelle, will show a few options, which is very nice to know, if you look at the info that copo9566aa supplied for the car. A51:Strato Bkt Frt(bucket seats) D55: center console B79:exterior trim(SS 396) L34:396/350hp M40:TH400 auto So if I'm right, if the other three would check there build sheets and written #, it too..will be on there's as well. As for the 1001HA, well, I hate to be the banker here, but I have at least one build sheet, for a 69 COPO Chevelle, that has the 1001HA, with a RPO paint code of (51),Dusk Blue, this car is special order #6B1603 1001HA 9566AA. There is nothing out of the norm, for this COPO Chevelle, by the build sheet. Any one else on the Board, have a 1969 COPO Chevelle, would like to share there info, we just might be able to figure this out. COPOPETE, I have your's LOL, however it would be nice to know what your trim tag shows. |
