The stunning Hugger Orange 1969 Chevrolet COPO Camaro you’re about to see below crossed the block for $180,000 during Mecum Auctions’ second annual auction at the Anaheim Convention Center last week.
This highly optioned and well documented muscelcar has only 21,000 original miles on its odometer and sports factory Super Sport wheels, a Houndstooth interior and original powertrain parts. Additionally, it still has its original window sticker and a COPO vehicle verification from COPO Connection.
The 1969 COPO Camaro was powered by a 7.0-liter big-block V8 engine (under)rated at 425 horsepower. The drag racing versions, on the other hand, were fited with an all-aluminum 7.0-liter V8. Chevrolet fitted around 900 to 1,000 1969 Camaros with the L72 engine options, 201 of which being sold to Don Yenko.
