Re: When did GM first introduce the COPO option ?
I heard that same story not too long ago. Kind of funny how he made it things work for him.

 Nicely put. I'm betting he didn't have to send some of those "taxi's" back or out to other dealers from sticker shock though.

I will have to ask Helen this weekend, I've heard the same story. Bet some of the first Gibb COPO's were sixes.

Re: When did GM first introduce the COPO option ?
"By the time GM figured out that LaHarpe's 6000 population couldn't support a fleet of 50 taxis, it was too late."
I've heard the same story a few times about the Gibb Taxi 'fleet'. Never thought about asking Helen for verification. DUH! The best available resource is right in front of us this weekend!

Re: When did GM first introduce the COPO option ?
I was day dreaming when I said late 68. I was thinking Camaros and Chevelles not the whole C.O.P.O thing but I didnt know it went that far back.
