1967 copo trim tag

[Hugh P.]

Reviewing Mecum Florida LOT S158.1 car description listed as leather interior. Trim tag lists 420KP that should mean saddle vinyl with A82,A85 and C07. I am trying to sharpen my skills on the trim tag info and was wondering your thoughts on how to decypher the information representing the alpha numeric for the paint. I realize it is to represent non RPO Mosport green paint but does 81001HA SPECIAL represent anything else? Also, do you think the reference to the car having leather interior is a mis-print as advertised? I am sure some of you out there are familiar with this car and your thoughts1967 COPO.jpg. Hope you all are able to enjoy this special time of year.

That is a neat car. I had a '66 in that color with the dark green leather interior. I found out at Top Flight judging that leather didn't come in that color, only red or black as I remember. Mine should have had green vinyl. I am wondering about this one too, I suspect the leather is not the original interior material, but I can't say for sure about that. The COPO cars are hard to be sure what was on them, unless there is a tank sticker available.

Hugh -

The "81001HA" was an accounting/pricing code for special paint, and would have appeared on the tank sticker, window sticker, and Car Shipper.

You can also find this car on youtube.com. Search for the owner's name. (Bucks came from "Long John Silver's" chain.)

Interesting that this sold for $165K, and ProTeam bought it and it is up for sale.
