Well, I'm certainly the wrong person to ask about changing a colour from Lemans Blue as it has always been my favourite GM colour. Black is certainly cool, and a Black COPO would be even more cool, but for such a unique car I agree with the others.

Lemans Blue is just as nice as a black car,why bother?
I agree with everyone else and personally i have never bought a car with a color change from what it was born with.

LB COPO Chevelle how many of those are around? Not as many as there are Black chevelles which shouldn't be, that's for sure. LB is my favorite GM color.

There was an Olympic Gold Berger COPO Camaro that was foolishly redone in Garnet Red a few years ago. It was widely criticized. I believe it finally sold and has been corrected.
