If I remember correctly ...the sign that is in the photo of Don at Colonial Chevrolet in Norfolk, Virginia
....states "500th COPO" ...NOT "500TH YENKO"
...is that the number that you are revering to?

Actually it said "350th 1969 unit built, delivered to Colonial Chevrolet Norfolk VA." The photo published in MCR in 1987 showed a photo of this sign on top of a 69 sYc camaro, but they also took photos of the same sign on top of a 69 sYc chevelle the same day, I have the negatives of the entire photo shoot from that day. I actually think seeing this photo may have made Don think he sold more than 200 Camaros... If they would have used one of the photos of the sign on the Chevelle the whole story may have been different... who knows?
