I believe Doug told me that he spent 3 years talking to the previous owner before he convinced him to sell the car. I would think that Doug would have some information on the car. Have you talked to him about it?

Thanks Freddie, from what I understand Doug didn't have it very long and might not have turned all the rocks over. Ideally, we are hoping to find some dealer or COPO order paperwork.

Maybe you could post some info from the trim tag, is it the original color for example.

Post 10 pic is over the top cool, anyone ever restoring this car to stock deserves punishment.
What’s the build date, also best post Trim Tag as Body # may line up w/ others known?
Here’s the other two Joseph Ads I mentioned previously, 05/69 Ad has 20x 427 Camaros listed, also three 427 cars in Ad from 08/69. Note there’s nothing referring to them as Yenko cars in either Ad, again are any Joseph delivered Non-Yenko Copo cars known existing today?
More pics please!

~ Pete

Sounds like Joseph was the place to congregate if you worshipped at Church Of The Third Pedal. They saw, realized & catered to those of us obsessed with controlling the transfer of power with our left foot & right arms.
