Default Pic of Colonial Chevrolet 69 Camaro delivery

Just came across this pic elsewhere, unusual to see a loading/unloading picture, is it the last car on or first off? Anybody able to pin the car # down by guessing the colour & if only a few sold through Colonial?

Good spot, I wouldn't know without looking it up.
I did wonder, is that a Yenko Chevelle lower rear on the trailer, strip down the side or just a reflection?

I bought my first car at Colonial, a '70 Camaro

That dealer likely gets the award for selling the most Yenko's that are now missing. At least 10?

I don't think the first pic and the 2nd pic are the same truck, even though cars look similar. In the 1st pic the lower rear Chevelle is facing rearwards, in the 2nd it is facing frontwards. Trailer is a bit different too.

But it is amazing that all the cars are in the same order with very close colors!
