Default Re: '68 Yenko, Transplant vs. COPO

Kevin;
That is very interesting regarding Florida receiving so many '68 Yenkos. I was originally surprised that Florida received any Yenkos, and while talking with Tim Lapatta a while ago he said that racing was, and still is, a year-round activity down there. This might explain the volume in '68, and maybe that volume saturated the market by '69. I know some ZL1's went to Florida as well, but it I don't know of any '69 or '70 Yenko cars, (?). Additionally, I know that one of the '81 Turbo Z's was originally sold out of Tampa, but it was transferred to them because they had a buyer, not on speculation.
