Default is it a COPO ?

Hi this is my first time here all I can say is WOW!!
I have a 1966 L-72 Belair it's an old drag car and used to run under the name "BRONZE HOG", I have the protect-o-plate and would know if all L-72 cars had to be ordered or is there a chance it was on the lot. The POP reads like this:

F MM 156116G129672 H

T1209ID D00920B C

P0903 3

It was purchased at Salina Motors in Syracuse N.Y. delivery date is 1/4/66. Any info would be a great help I plan on having the car @ the syracuce nationals this summer Thanks Pat.

It is an L72 car designated by the ID suffix on the plate info but I believe the engine was an rpo for big cars and didn't require the copo process in 66 to have such an engine..
