not a MOPAR, but worth a look...
« on: April 05, 2008 - 11:44:39 PM »
COPO with 60 original miles.....the original owner is an old friend of mine, he still works for Chrysler and has for over 40 years....the Camaro was recently restored to showroom new condition and is within 15 miles of its home...I remember the Camaro from back then, but had forgotten about it thru the decades...one of the sponsors was a local used car dealer, they are still in business today

That would be worth some cash. Looks like an early 90's IROC beside it as well. Nice to see similar cars of different eras shown together.

I don't think that would be right as anybody could order the Mopar in their particular flavor. COPO cars I though had to be ordered by a dealer in batches with minimum quantities.

Very cool COPO!  Those were some hard 60 miles I would imagine.  :grinyes:
