T Billigen's Yenko is without question one of the 198 Cannonsberg Yenkos.'ssl78'had an unrestored 01C "List" Yenko that was sold new from Douglass Chevrolet ,which had the same 'conventional' emblem placement on the tail pannel.

In fact, the original 427 emblems from his Camaro were used as some of the first templates for reproduction emblems.

Don Yenko is indeed the father of the 9737, Sports Car conversion and L-72 COPO options. He made it happen. Even the single L-72 COPO Camaros owe in major part, their existence to Don Yenko. These COPO Camaros Novas and Chevelles are not mutually exclusive and there is no need to draw a line in the sand.

It seems to me that "we" never attribute the appropriate credit to the likes of Dick Harrell, Mr. Chevrolet, who in my opinion is the Great Grand Daddy of all the Conversion and COPO Super Cars.

Fred Gibb should in my opinion be considered the Grandfather of the COPO Super Car movement.

Harrell,Gibb and Yenko's accomplishments are also not mutually exclusive.I don't mean to exclude Nickey, Dana, Berger, Thomas, and the important significant others, but my post has become a bit wordy already.

When is the last time anyone has recalled that Gibb and Yenko both used Harrell's logo templates to badge their own cars or that Harrell worked as Nickey Chevrolet's service manager and converted Yenko Camaros Moon lighting at SPAN,Inc. in Chicago.

I make this statement with only the greatest degree of respect intended to the Late Great Don Yenko. Does anyone think, that given the opportunity He would ask to see an inventory floor plan sheet prior to picking a Super Car to drive Home from the reunion.

He might prefer to try one of those Baldwin/Motion cars or test Dickie's latest toy. I certainly do not know and speculate only to make a point. Did any of the COPOs which left Yenko Chevrolet without stripes or badges become non Yenkos?

Jack Douglass COPOs exist primarily due to the efforts and ambitions of Don Yenko. Douglass was one of the first Yenko Sports Car Dealers to join Don's network.

Douglass was without question one of the leading COPO/Yenko dealers ,in the Country. These COPOs terrorized the drag strips and city steets and helped forge the Yenko/COPO legend and legacy as it exists today.

Shor, you asked how these 22 COPOs compare to the listed 198? They were dreamed up by the same person, ordered per his established method and deliverd to the ultimate consumer as the genuine article?

These 22 are in my opinion 100% authentic Yenko COPOs and it will be the options and trim level as well as unique history which will dertermine their ultimate desirability.
