This car is indeed an all original drive train and original sheet metal. I bought this car from Carl Dwiggens in the early 80s. looking back it is a shame it was restored. I sold it to Guy Rumito and Guy restored it and later when Cliff was looking for Yenkos I put him in touch with Guy. The rest is as we say history.

#208 This Daytona Yellow 69 COPO Camaro is 124379N632994. It was ordered by Ewing Chevrolet in Canton OH and dealer transferred to Earl Wagner Chevrolet in Minerva OH. The body number is right in line with several other 04C cars ordered by Ewing. This car has 3.6K miles and still has its original paint and interior. It does not have its original engine and the engine compartment appears to be restored. It is also missing its smog and original exhaust manifolds. This car was with the original owners family until '21. It sold at Mecum Indy '22 for $200K.

#209 This Butternut Yellow 69 Yenko Chevelle was sold new at V.V. Cooke Chevrolet in Louisville KY. I believe this car still has its original engine and rearend. It was restored by Dave Tinnel. It is currently a heater and radio delete car. I know the heater delete isn't factory and I'm not sure about the radio delete. It was featured in the April '95 issue of Muscle Car Review when it was owned by Rusty Symmes. It was also owned by M. Guarise and B. Gagliano. It was part of Tom Abrams collection and sold for $220K at Mecum Indy '22.

Yes the rear end and motor are both original in this butternut yellow car. It did have the radio in the car when I sold it to Rusty but he deleted it and the heater. If my memory serves me right I think it was all original sheet metal as well.

#210 This Cranberry Red 70 Yenko Deuce is W351186 and was sold new at Loehmann Chevrolet in Waterbury CT. This car doesn't have its original engine. I'm not sure about the transmission. It was restored by Neal Robbins who sold it to Frank Magallon. He showed and raced it at a number of the Supercar Reunions where in ran in the 13.30's. It was part of Tom Abrams collection and sold at Mecum in Indy for $135K. This car did not set at all level. The driver side rear was lower than the passenger side rear and the passenger side front was higher than the driver side front. I looked like it needed new springs in back.

#212 This Tuxedo Black 69 Camaro COPO is N661680 and was sold new at Mac's Chevrolet-Olds in Crete NE to Vic Keller. This is an automatic car with a column shift. It was restored by Frank Payne and was at the Chevy Vette Fest in '03. It is now owned by Jim Stubbings from Heartbeat City. It is currently on display at the Gilmore Museum. Sorry I couldn't get a better picture of it.

Would those be the correct tires? Redlines? For the Camaro, didn't Chevy switch over to the RWL Wide Tread E70s by the time the COPOs were being made?
