The 201 number is a 40 year old mistake.

In the early 1980’s Vince E. acquired the original Yenko records. He at first counted 201 vins that he thought were 1969 Yenko Camaros but a short time later he changed his number to 198. The 198 number has some questions on it due to some discrepancies, but the 198 number has been used since the 1980’s.

The 201 number has no historical basis other then being an often repeated mistake.
So Vince still holds all the sheets? Anyway to get a hold of Vince E. still? I've heard he wont actually provide you a copy of anything he has but basically throws a certificate together saying it's listed on what he has and it isn't cheap.
