December '01 feature car

[COPO]

Rob, not sure why, but the link definitely does not work for me. I see Pete's COPO Nova on the home page, but the link to more info pulls up the Nov. feature information. Have refreshed bowser numerous times, but still getting the Nov. information.

Me too. But when I go to past feature cars it is there. Awesome car Pete. Was it sold at Jack Douglas and you pulled the stripes off? (JUST KIDDING!!)>

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Casey;
There has never been a documented LT1 COPO Nova found in the U.S. that was not a Yenko Deuce. I have chased several 'COPO' Novas, only to find out that they were lame attempts to duplicate Peter's car.

The two that went to Canada were actually from an initial order of 10 cars by Central (?, Pete). Apparently, GM of Canada has not uncovered an additional 8 cars on it's papework so Pete's car is one of two that went to Canada.

All Novas produced from '68 on were produced at Willow Run, Mich. inlcuding the COPO's. The COPO LT1 engines came from the Flint, Mich. assy plant not Tonawanda like some POP's are coded. The list of dealerships that received Yenko Deuce Novas is long, I will try to download my list but my new computer doesn't have a disc drive!

COPO/Yenko:

I just had one of those "DUH!" moments...the link below the picture (where it says December 2001) of Pete's Nova takes you to the November car, whereas the picture itself takes you to Pete's car. Sooo...time to fix a link...

Oh guys just click on the picture and the article will come up but it does not work on the link below it though.............

Well Dave, I can see why you would be jealous for not having Douglas Yenko/COPO. There is a case to be made that 1 of the 22 or so Camaros he striped with Don Yenko's approval and authorization should be considered more rare than 1 of 198 that merely got shipped to PA. to have stripes applied. They were sold as Yenko Camaros to customere who believed they were buying Yenko Camaros from the authorized Yenko dealer for Chicagoland.
I know we have beat this subject before, but, don't throw stones, and, I won't have to stand up for my fellow Chicagolanders. Oh yeah, and my car. [That's a disclaimer]
