I have not seen exact numbers for the 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros but here is some info that has been around since the 1980s.

There was some info that showed Yenko special ordered about 70 of the 1968 COPO 9737 L-78 396 375hp Camaros.

The Vince E. number used for many years for 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros is 64.

The early 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros were not built from COPO 9737 Camaros

The auto trans 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros were not built from COPO 9737 Camaros

There was one 4 sp 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros built with AC that I don't believe was built from a COPO 9737 Camaro.

I am not sure how many 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros were built with auto trans but I have seen info in old ads and other Yenko items showing at least a few AT cars.

If you do the math on the known non-converterted COPO cars , the early non-COPO 427 cars, the AC 4sp non-COPO 427 car, and the auto trans non-COPO 427 cars, there could have been 15 or more non-converterted COPO 9737 Camaros sold.

I don't know how many 1968 Yenko 427 Super Camaros were built with auto trans but each one would mean another non-COPO 427 car out of the 64 total.
