Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
More info.
One of approx 25 NON-Canonsburg Jack Douglass ordered and sold Yenko Camaros. Very unique part of Yenko and Super Car history. Not a restored car, with lots of originality still maintained. Was completely repainted approx 10 years ago or so. Believed to be one of only two such Dover White Douglass Yenkos ever built. The other one also exists. There is a correct date cast RESTAMPED not original engine in the car, with not many miles on a rebuild. Transmission is original and the BE rear is original. Interior is mostly original. Sheet metal, floor pans, trunk pans are all original with no patch work I have been able to detect. ( I believe that one door has been reskinned). The body is amazing. Trim Tag and VIN tag never removed. 39,XXX mile history seems to be accurate based on ownership records. I purchased this car from Bob Trez back in approx 2001, with a sketchy history and with info provided to me first hand by Jack Douglass. It has had two subsequent owners since. Most of the history going back to the original owner has surfaced. Documents to follow. |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
While this document does not pertain directly to this particular vehicle, it is important to the history of this Yenko.
This document is for the Yellow Douglass Yenko I had purchased from Dana Mecum / Mecum Collection, which now resides in the Brothers Collection. It was fastidiously restored by the Super Car Workshop for our very own Tony Lucas and is now featured on the cover of recent book. "Top Muscle". I believe this was the first "official" certification of the Douglass Yenko history. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...1-scan0001.jpg |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
These are Bob Trez's hand written notes regarding the White Yenko he purchased Circa 1992.
He was not aware of the full Douglass Yenko history and thought he had a "Berger" Double COPO, becuase the car was almost a twin to Kevin Dewitt's Berger COPO, which Kevin still owns to this day. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...2-scan0002.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...3-scan0003.jpg |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
This is the NICB info as it was provided to Bob Trez, directing the documentation trail back to Douglass Chevrolet.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
This is a copy of a document, found in the Yenko estate archives owned and maintained by Tom Clary.
It was shared in the public eye, by Tom Clary. Had he not done so an important part of Yenko history may have been overlooked and misunderstood. While there may never be 100% consensus on exactly what took place back then, this document goes a long way to show that Don Yenko was involved and aware of the scenario. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...5-scan0005.jpg |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Note that the original copy of the Bill of Sale as well as customer copy of the retail installment contract both list "Yenko" as a description of the Camaro. These documents along with the POP were acquired from the original owner.

Still available. Trades?

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Love this car ...
|
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Lucky the original posted "Original Yenko Paperwork, $ 100" on Craigslist a few years ago. I was able to connect him with the current owner of this car who was only 30 minutes away. Nice to see the histories come together on cars like this.
|
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Having the original owner as well as the original Documents verifying that this Double COPO was indeed sold new as a "Yenko" was a great way to complete the history to date.
The other white Yenko is the very next body # to this one. Milt Robson had discovered the original engine at a local machine shop and title traced the VIN. He found the car under a car port with Yenko designation, but knew nothing about the Douglass history. He decided to restore his car as a Yenko and it wasn't until after he sold it that the current owner became aware of it's history as well. |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
$245,000.00 or trades.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Trades?

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Sold at Kissimmee Auction. Congrats to both buyer and seller.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
124379N649011 Sold for 225K.
https://www.mecum.com/lot-detail/FL0...amaro/4-Speed/ |
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Technically it was hammered at $225,000.00 and total sale price is $225k plus 10% auction premium or $247,500.00.
|
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Is that 10% charged to the buyer or seller?
|
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
bet it's both.
|
Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Posted fees and commissions for Kisssimmee are 10% to the buyer AND 10% to the seller. The auction house collects from both. Some auction quote results with buyers premium and some do not, but most all major collector car auctions contractually collect from both sides.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Stefano, I've read from mecum that there is competition between the different auction companies (mecum, B-J, etc.) for the big, crowd drawing high end cars. I hadn't ever thought about it before but it does make sense. So, that being said, would you think it's safe to say that Schmeeckle's huge collection of cars likely were charged less than the routine 10% ?
Just curious as to your thoughts. |
