COPO 9560 = '69 Camaro with ZL1 engine
COPO 9561 = '69 Camaro with L72 engine EDSEL FALCON = OLDSMOBILE VEGA... BTW, do you recall the Part # on the BIG BOX the '12 COPO drove out of, @ SEMA? 20129560... 2012 for MY, 9560 for "heritage"... ![]() The GOOD part about the Falcon is it prompted GM to create the Chevy Twice...which begat the Camaro-Nova...and of course the Falcon begat something called a "Mustang"... Edsel?! Well...a 1000 comics would have to work a lil harder to come up with 15 minutes of jokes! |

Oldsmobile wasn't a failure until the 80s. If I recall correctly, the Chevy Chevette and Oldsmobile Cutlass were the number 1 selling cars for a period of 77 through about 81.............right about the time the Japanese started to have real alternatives. ![]()

...and then Olds started calling EVERYTHING Mid-sized a Cutlass...Cutlass Ciera, Cutlas Calais, Cutlass this 'n Cutlass that...pretty much wore the edge off the cutlass (no caps) till they felt so <insert here> they abandoned the name for something much more Intrigue-ing...which apparently wasn't...
Thank you, SoapBoyz! But I digress... Lovely morning, here, by the Lake! How's your neck of the woods? Last edited by LOWDOWN; 03-10-2012 at 12:47 PM. |

ShnOmac, with the quick and sudden appearance of Spring, back East, I may be forced to put the "ShnOman" moniker in hibernation till MUCH later this year...
