427 COPO Chevelle

Many car enthusiasts from the era didn’t know these were available, as they were not mentioned in the dealer brochures or advertised.

Rare? Yes, no question about that! It is believed that only three such black-hued COPO Chevelles were built, with two of those being automatic transmission cars, making this the “one of one” 4-speed car on the planet. And with factory NC8 chambered exhaust with no traditional mufflers, it’s an extraordinary vehicle.

“rock crusher” version of the 4-speed
Adding the U14 special instrumentation with tachometer and gauges in the dash, D96 red sport striping, plus the fact that the original purchaser specified the extra-cost M-22 “rock crusher” version of the 4-speed, then you know you’re looking at a vehicle that is very, very special.

The cars featured Malibu trim and not “SS” trim; however, they did have the twin domed “SS” hood.
