"2016 Chevrolet COPO Camaro
First shown as a SEMA concept and unleashed for sale in 2012, Chevrolet's modern COPO Camaro was purpose-built after five years of intensive development work to take on the Ford Mustang Cobra Jet and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak for NHRA Sportsman-class competition. Just 69 were produced, precisely matching the 69 ZL1 Camaros manufactured for drag racing use under Chevrolet's infamous COPO (Central Office Production Order) system back in 1969. Of those 69 modern COPO cars produced, two were convertibles and 67 were coupes.
Depending on the drag-racing class considered, available COPO Camaro power choices included a supercharged 5.3L LSX with 2.9L capacity blower, a naturally aspirated 7.0L V-8 or a supercharged 350 CI LSX. These all-out, factory-built drag cars are totally worthy of their hallowed designation and were launched to ""instant icon"" status.
Carrying Serial No. 18 of the 69 COPO Camaros produced, this all-out 2016 Chevrolet COPO Camaro Coupe has never been tracked, despite its status as an NHRA-certified factory COPO drag car. Powered by a 427 CI V-8 engine, naturally aspirated, hand-assembled and features Holley electronic fuel injection as well as open exhaust headers. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed ATI TH400 automatic transmission and a Strange Engineering rear axle with 4.57:1 gearing.
Staggered-width Bogart racing wheels are mounted with Hoosier drag slicks. Stopping power is provided by Strange Engineering four-piston calipers over slotted rotors all around. The suspension system features a four-link setup with a Panhard rod out back as well as Strange Engineering adjustable coilovers at all four corners.
The interior is fitted with NHRA-spec racing seats with five-point Simpson harnesses and a driver-side window net. The leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel frames AutoMeter instrumentation including a tachometer mounted to the A-pillar of the safety cage as well as gauges for fuel pressure, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and transmission fluid temperature. Additional equipment includes an eight-point roll cage, a Hurst Quarterstick shifter, and auxiliary switches controlling the ignition system, fuel pump, radiator fan, and starter.
It is visually striking in its purposeful Summit White exterior with matte red graphic stripes. Equipment includes a Simpson parachute, wheelie bars, and a carbon-fiber cowl hood with an air intake. A racing fuel cell with an Eliminator fuel pump is mounted in the trunk along with the battery. Documents include the COPO Camaro owner's binder, and this factory-built racing contender is sold on a bill of sale.

Hello and welcome to LRA AUTO SALES. We purchased a Chevrolet Dealership almost three years ago and turned it into a Quality Pre-Owned Auto Superstore and Muscle & Classic Car Museum.
I named it LRA Enterprises Auto Museum and Auto Sales which encompasses my two son’s initials and mine. I wanted it to become a family oriented place where parents could take their sons & daughters to and show them what cars use to be like in their era and where they can purchase a car of their era. Where a husband and wife could bring their children to and link the gap of automotive history from present back to the past.
We pride ourselves in displaying some of automotive history’s greatest and most rarest cars ever built. Where names such as Corvette, Super Sport, BOSS 429, MOPAR and HEMI are common place. We are also strong in the racing heritage and names such as Lingenfelter and Ray Barton, Richard Petty and Bobby Allison are legends and at LRA we’ll make sure those legends will never die.
We offer a “one stop shop” kind of atmosphere and offer all aspects of sales, service, auto body and collision and towing. We encompass a full array of Cars and Trucks for sale from the 1950’s up to current day. We also have a Speed Shop on site, offering everything from wheels to accessories and even dyno runs for measuring horsepower.
We are located at 3114 Veterans Highway / Route 413 in Bristol PA and provide quality pre-owned cars and quality pre-owned trucks to all the surrounding areas of Bristol.
For customized driving directions, contact us today at: 215-781-3790.
Thanks for visiting our website and hope to see you soon to view over two million dollars of classic, muscle and pre-owned auto inventory
