Re: Live from Oxford , MI - the Camaro COPO story - Part 3
 

I'm confused, are you talking about whose Copo Camaro left the GM plant first or where final assembly took place...are you talking about two different buildings :confused:

Copo Camaro #7

Copo Camaro #3

In this article below it says that the first COPO Camaro's were numbers #3, #5, #7 & #9...so which car actually left the building first.

You guys are killing me. I can't believe all the interest in this topic,but here goes. There was only one delivery date and one delivery location . It was wixom. That is the plant where the engines are and when the owners arrived to sign the papers and have ownership pass to us that is where it occurred. The build group was there they turned the cars over to the public us at that time . The picture above is the black car number 3 mine going out the door first with me driving it As I think back it was lined up first to go out the door but some guys moved it to the side and pushed their car ahead to try to go out the plant door. As I think back on this I wonder if they were thinking about trying to be first. Me honestly I was not thinking about first or last I was so excited about the car first or last was not on my mind. Well as it turned out since our car was first my crew chief had already pulled my trailer up to the door so the GM guys put my car back in the first position I got in and drive it out of the factory yes factory first and that is the video you see. I am done talking about it they were delivered once the day we signed the papers and that is the above video at the wixom factory location. If anyone wants to dispute what I just said put up 10,000 cash and meet me at wixom to see if this lawyer knows what he is talking about. Enough enough enough one delivery one location one set of facts. Title passed that day and that is the day we the owners got to drive . God my arguments before the United States Supreme Court were simpler than this.

The future will prove that the earliest serial numbered unit will be the most desirable in this series of special vehicles. If it so happened that the owner of car #3 came to the plant to get his car two weeks after cars 4 thru 12 were delivered, it would still be THE THIRD COPO BUILT. First car to go out the door, first car to spin the tires, first car to make a pass............all very interesting but no more than that. Other collectibles, art work, etc. prove this to always be the case.

As a huge fan of the COPO cars - and someone who is trying to get one of the 2013s or 2014s (tried to get the 2012 also) - I have to say congrats to all who received one. Personally, I couldn't care less whose was 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or last out of the plant. It's kinda like Adam Sandler said in Happy Gilmore - "Gold Jacket, Green Jacket....who gives a *****."

But I must say my favorite of all of the cars is Mr. Cambria's. The big blower, all black, no stickers/graphics....it's just bad.

I know your probably sick of answering these questions about your car but just to be clear, are you saying that the other Copo Camaros lined up at the door below were pushed back and yours was pushed out on wheel dollies as seen in the video above...is that statement correct or not.

That photo was taken at the oxford facility and those four were loaded into a trailer and shipped to the wixom facility.The cars were unloaded and placed inside the building and that is where the four were turned over to the lucky owners.

Re: Live from Oxford , MI - the Camaro COPO story - Part 3
 

And those were the ONLY COPO'S delivered at the Wixom facility.

And they have white letter tires. I think I am going to start writing all this stuff down!
