GM's Oshawa Ont. assembly plant never assembled the 1970 L-78,LS-6 solid lifter Chevelle.
The Hydraulic lifter L-34,LS-5 Chevelle,yes.
Canada did import already assembled L-78,LS-6 chevelles from the USA to be sold in Canada too.
BTW,if it crossed the canadian border,or was assembled in Canada,VVS has a record of it.https://www.vintagevehicleservices.com/option-info

Mr70, is that over & above the standard GM docs from George Zapora & John Agueci you can obtain? (As seen in my picture above). I didn’t know you could ask for such info from VVS.

Default Chevelle

"Park Lane is still around. (Sarnia is my hometown)
Originally on Indian Rd. but has since moved to London Rd.

I have a dealer emblem too.

I believe they sold at least one COPO Camaro. (I'll have to check the list)"

Park Lane did sell atleast one 1969 COPO Camaro which was Cortez Silver.
