Re: COPO Olds
I would think the closest thing would be a Hurst Olds....aside from that I dont think there was anything comparable to the Chevy COPO program, as far as performance cars go.

Re: COPO Olds
No COPO for Olds, but I have seen many special paint - - 442s, W30s and some W31s.

Re: COPO Olds
I have never heard of an offical way of getting what you wanted (like COPO) , but I have heard of many special order colors. Special powertrains? (maybe backdoor specials with Dale Smith but I have heard nothing else).

Re: COPO Olds
ZR900 You must be from Minnesota or saw the Silver Olds listed by the guy in the Cities? I dont believe that the car has anything to do with COPO rather its just a rare unusual car. 1972 V code Supremes, They are a low production number car but they also made alot of the fastback style and a some convertibles also.
Same concept as COPO take a Plain Jane and put a 455 with w30 options and a 4 speed but not worth the same coin as a COPO.

Re: COPO Olds
You could order the Cutlass Supreme SX and get the 455 in it. Not sure if same 455 as 442 or not. Have seen several in mags over the years.

Re: COPO Olds
I was thinking that the 66 w-30 was about as close as a COPO that Olds did. Only 54 made. Factory built race cars really.

Re: COPO Olds
Rainer,
--------There was a so called "mileage version" 455 with a two barrel, I believe, but the standard 455 available with the SX was a quadrajet. I know as we had a couple of them go thru Classic Motors back in the day with paperwork. Cant remember codes or any of that stuff.......Bill S |
