Default Re: Could this be Yenko/COPO

There has been one documented X22 COPO Camaro and no X66 Copos other than Yenkos found ,documented or verified to date.

Ed Cuneen's COPO book references the X22 Code COPO, which belongs to a club Member.

Why would you think it was a COPO or Yenko by the vin and trim tag?

Stefano, it wasn't the VIN or trim tag that got my curiosity up (well maybe some). Other things...may be, may be not. I am content to wait and research at this point. Money sure isn't a factor as I "jumped over" these two cars. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif[/img]

I don't know of any X22 COPO's. Not sure of the one that Stefano is referring to, but it's not in the database.
Little errors (like the X22 thing) alway creep into the site........

#'s show that no way that car is a COPO. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The X22 Code Copo which I was referring to ,I believe belongs to Bob and Larry Adock.

The info I have shows that it was sold out of Courtesy Chevrolet in Sebring Ohio.

It is an early 01B car with 713 Trim and 72 72 Paint with X22.

As Stefano says, there is one fully documented X-22 COPO Camaro in the COPO Connection registry. I know of no other one built. X22 was the code used for Big Block Super Sports with Style Trim. Yenko's first batch of 50 cars did not have Style Trim, so they received X66 codes. Later orders were changed to X11 and X44 codes.

To my knowledge, the Adcock brothers' daytona yellow yenko camaro is an X44 body, and was sold out of Bob Johnson Chevrolet in Wausau, WI.

Stefano
I show the same info as Marlin said.
I was parked next to them at Indy in 01 and remember the D/Y Camaro well.
I believe I showed you a picture of it last Summer.
Is this the same Camaro you are referring to??

Bob sold the yellow Yenko and now him and his brother have two Hugger orange COPOs, they are fresh frame off restos and one is the X-22 full documentation on both. He is bringing one to Indy this year, I hope I can talk him into bringing both!!!

Marlin,

I never said it was a Yenko, and code 72 72 is not Daytona Yellow. You'll have to look up the trim [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]Only you could read what I posted and put a spin on it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Rick,

This Car was also at the last Vest Fest. Gold Spinner Winner. Very Cool option Combo, gorgeous car.

Barry,

The COPO tires listed on the build sheet didn't make the car a COPO. I trust that it also showed the L72 427 engine and 4.10 special rear gears [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
