Default Photo of 68 Camaro's at Kenny Ross Chevrolet ?

Mr. Tom Billigen posted a photo of the dealership lot of Kenny Ross Chevrolet in this thread, "1968 Yenko Copo Camaro / Non Converted Car". This thread was back in 12-31-03 - 1-4-04, and the post numbers are 10403, 10404, 10405, and more post. Some persons involved in this conversation were JoeC and CamaroJoe. There was a link to this photo, but is now dead or gone.

From the description given of this photo, it has the Corvette Bronze unconverted car that Mr. Billigen bought, plus six or eight more copo's or L78's, Yenko's, etc.

If anyone has a copy of this photo, or knows how to access it, please reply. I know of several people including myself that have not seen this photo, but would like to.

Thanks,
Bryan

Kenny Ross is where I bought my first new Camaro in 1989 when I graduated college. Even got a jar of Aunt Penny's Elderberry Jelly [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Ah yes, Aunt P's jelly. I remember their commercials well. What college did you graduate from?

I was helping Tom research the car
As far as we can tell it was some type of dealer trade with Yenko Chev

We think only Yenko received the 1968 COPO 9737 L78 Camaros and had some unconverted ones late in the model year

So I assume the NCRS shows Yenko as the dealer and it has the MM tag?
