What's a type 2? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

LoneStar · 09-14-2010, 09:04 PM

Today while pumping gas in my car, a guy aproached me saying how nice my car was. Then he asked about the different level of the Camaro that are out. He mentioned super sport, iroc, RS, Z-28, then said something that sounded like type 2

?! I informed him of the options currently out, and about the upcoming Z28, but I had no clue what a "type 2" was. He was kinda hard to understand so he might of been saying something that sounded like type 2 (i.e. typhoon). Does anyone know what he might have been talking about, and if so could you educate me so I don't make the mistake again?

type LT was introduced in 1977 i think, hung around for 1978 and became the berlinetta in 1979. it was the upscale comfort model

type 2 is the modern equivalent of the COPO

ok... not really, but that'd be AWESOME, wouldn't it?!

I had to look up COPO.

I'm pretty sure he was talking about a trim level or option from the past. He had to have been in his 60's. I think the guy was homeless, as well. :(

I noticed that after I replied to your post. The letters blended into the background.

Maybe a type T? I think they called the late 70's early 80's with the T-tops that.
