Re: Field find
 

Charlie - did they finish the red 68 yenko yet?

Re: Field find
 

Almost. Should be at MCACN

Re: Field find
 

I knew that was Level One, I recognize the fence!!

Re: Field find
 

Looks fantastic Charley.

Re: Field find
 

Wow. Can't believe this car came from Carter. I grew up in Bonham and my Dad even worked for Carter in the late 70s. I still go to Bonham every couple of weeks because I still have family there. Carter became Carter-Wood in the late 80s and moved from the old downtown location around the same time. The new location was on Center street and that is now a Dodge dealership. Carter-Wood sold out in the mid '00s and the dealer became Legacy Ridge Chevrolet, Buick, GMC. There's no GM dealer in Bonham now as they were part of the closings that happened in 2009.

My Dad would love this car if he was still here today. I wish I could tell him about it. If that car was around Bonham when new, he would have known it. I'd love to own a '69 Camaro that was sold there. Very cool!

Re: Field find
 

Charley,

I've posted to Facebook to see if anyone from Bonham remembers this car and might have some information on it. I can't imagine that many Copos went through Carter so I'm sure some of my Dad's friends might remember it, if it stayed around Bonham at all. Hell, I can't believe two of them were sold there.

Re: Field find
 

Great, thanks.

Re: Field find
 

I only took one pic of it at MCACN. I'm sure someone else can post more. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...8-img_0510.jpg

Re: Field find

Re: Field find
 

Loved that COPO!!!!....Bill S

Re: Field find

Re: Field find
 

I posted several pictures of this car and the barn find 68 Yenko up above in Musclecar Photographs along with a bunch of others I took at MCACN.

Re: Field find
 

Congrats on saving one from the soil.

Re: Field find
 

Nice looking car saved from the ravages of Mother Nature! H.O. is just a killer color on these '69s! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: Field find
 

My Orange Copo.....vin # was 689066. That was very close to this cars 689037 Also it had the same MN date of TO911MN

Figured I would post a status update in my quest to find someone local to the selling dealer that knew or remembered this car. No luck. I even reached out to someone that used to work there and they didn't remember it either.
