SEMA 2012: One of One Copo Camaro Convertible

This Inferno Orange bruiser is the only one of a kind, and will be auctioned off at Barrett Jackson in January. It uses the same supercharged 327 and Turbo 400 three-speed as the “standard” Copo cars, and with that beefy cage, I don’t think its rigidity will be compromised too much. But if I was going to rip down the drag strip in a purpose-built drag car, I might feel a little more comfortable with a roof over my head.

SEMA also saw a host of other great Camaros over the week including: Reggie Jackson’s green ’69 Yenko, the blown 780 LS7 1st Gen, the Hot Wheels themed ’69, the Custom Shop’s adventure in graphics, Mark Stielow’s latest, Mayhem, and the Goodguys’ Muscle Machine of the Year.
