Need some Yenko/Chevy info

[442w30]

To you guys, the experts, what is the current production figure for the 1969 Camaro? Is it still 201 or is it higher.

On a related note, is 1000 about as good an estimate of all L72 Camaros made in 1969?

Thanks,

Diego

Hello Diego, good to have you here. 199 or 201 on the Yenkos depending on who you talk to. I don't know of any COPO numbers that are accurate but I think the 1000 number is pretty good including the Yenkos. Greg Simmons

According to the sheet that I have the 201 is the right number for yenkos.

Diego:

198 is the number as of late, as 3 were destroyed early in their lives (I want to say in transport to Yenko and test drive(s), but BKH probably knows), which I guess would make 201.

What's up with the 409 and Yenko interest lately...you win the lottery or something?

Hey guys, both familiar and unfamiliar!

My friend is writing a musclecar book. I volunteered to do a production figure matrix, since I like numbers. It'll be cool because it's more of a list of cars than anything else. I have a lot of obscure numbers, but there are some that don't jibe, such as the 3733 SS454 cars made in 1970 as the Standard Book of Collectible Cars (we know it's over 8000).

It's getting down to the nitty gritty and the publisher is almost ready to publish, so I am trying to make last-gasp attempts to tie some loose ends. Enthusiasts such as yourselves are often better sources than books, and usually I know enough to recognize whether a number is old news or the real deal.

Anyway, for now I will put 201 . . . say, the Z16 was 201 as well. Heard from a friend with a L79 that the 1 ragtop was just a false rumor. True?

Thanks again,

Diego
