Default Re: Need some Yenko/Chevy info

Vince E. has the original records from Yenko and was used as a consultant in many Yenko articles during the 80s. His first count of the Yenko Camaros produced was 201. He later changed this total to 198 after recounting the cars. For some reason the number 201 is used in many articles instead of the corrected number of 198. This information was given to me by Vince E. in a phone conversation years ago.
There is some evidence from Chevy indicating that the total number of 1969 COPO 427 cars may be less then 750 including the ZL1s, the 427 Camaros and Chevelles, and the 1969 Yenkos.
The Z16 Chevelle was built on a convertible chassis but I do not know of any convertible Z16 Chevelles.
