JoeC,
Glad to see that you are paying attention to the details.

We have a Situation where an original owner purchased a Double COPO from Jack Douglass soon after it was delivered to the dealership and not Yet Striped or readied for sale as a Yenko.

The sales person closed the deal without Jack's prior knowledge/permission buy telling the customer he could have the car for $400.00 less than the price of the other Yenkos, with out the Yenko Package and the customer jumped at the deal. The sales person actually explained the Douglass/Yenko deal and why there was a $400.00 royalty due Don Yenko.

To this day Jack doesn't recall it ever taking place, but he and his general manager agreed that it could have happened.

I would call this the exception which proves the rule.

All the current authenticated/certified Douglass Yenkos have a history of having been striped/badged since new.
