There are only 4 bolts to replace a seat.
Also in the magazine they have TH400 but she had M22 from the factory

The question remains, why a savvy businessman like Joel Rosen wouldn’t just order an orange with deluxe interior Camaro instead of converting a blue car with standard interior to those specs. Also, not much evidence to support the car you correctly own is the same Baldwin Motion car talked about. That being said, you can’t say for sure that the passionate persimmon/wild pumpkin was not automatic from the factory. You are only basing that off your car being an M22. The only person who can definitively answer this question is Joel Rosen, but we know he has repeatedly stated that he didn’t use COPO 9651 for his builds, they were ordered as L78s.

Default Recall and didn’t

Joel would never say he didn’t use the copo program, from what Iv always read in multiple articles was he didn’t RECALL using any copos ,,,recall and didn’t two different statements , so there is possibility !

Joel told me personally one night when we were in his shop with Judy that he was not aware there was a COPO program for 1969 Camaros. That's why all of his 1969 427 Camaros are Super Sports. He ordered them with the L78 then changed the short block for an L72.

Motion was in Baldwin, I lived in Lynbrook, just a couple of towns away. He worked on my 1967 Corvette and my 1969 Camaro SS.

So apparently Jack Douglass knew about the program but didn't tell Joel.

Jack knew about the COPO fleet program but found out about the L72 Performance COPO by happenstance, when he found a dealer shipper/invoice in one of the Canonsburg Yenko Camaros.
