Found a Yenko & a COPO Camaro

[Mr70]

While at a carshow recently,I came a cross a 69 Yenko Camaro,and a 69 COPO Camaro.Both owned by the same owner.They looked very nice,but I am not a Yenko/COPO expert.Can anyone tell me if it is authentic by
its last 6 digits #N161684.
And do you guys know anything about the owner?

Rick,
What car show were you at? Was the COPO red and the Yenko yellow? I was at Downers Grove cruise night last year and a guy brought a trailer with a black LS6 coupe, yellow Yenko Camaro and his buddy with him had a red COPO Camaro. I was not a member of this site yet so did not think to ask them their names.

N161684 does not look like a 69 Camaro vin. It should be N5..., N6..., or N7...

I'm thinking you transposed some numbers!!
I think it should be 616184, which would be a Daytona Yellow, 4speed, p/s, w/ v/t, Yenko Camaro sold out of Grossman Chev. in MN. I've known that the car exists, but don't know the owners name, only that it is in IL.

Your right Joe and Marlin.
I was dislexic last night.
The last digits are #N616184.His name is Bob Joyce and he was at the Elmhurst Street cruise here last night.
These cars looked proper.Curved neck radiators,SW tachs,but it was dark and he was not around.I will be there next week with my Chevelle and will look for him again.
An onlooker told me the owner has owned for 3 years or so.I am just curious if anyone here knows him or his Beautiful Camaros.
The COPO is Red,The Yenko is Yellow Frank.

Joyce has had several Yenko cars, sold a citrus deuce a few years ago, has a b-yellow Y-Chevelle, a couple of Y-Camaros, among other cars. I think he's been in this for a while, and sold a couple of Yenko Camaros about 2 years ago. He also has a Deuce block, but the deuce is gone - used for a dirt track car in the late '70's, H-Orange a/t, bummer.
