Doug traced all the owner history with statements from all parties right back to owner ONE, who informed him of the red pin stripes and WW tires. On guy even installed SS emblems on the car at age 18. The first Yenko I ever bought had Z/28 stripes and a Z/28 emblem on the tail panel with the Yenko and 427 holes filled in with putty. The owner HAD the Z/28 emblem for the front fender in the trunk to add to the car, but never got around to it. You need to remember that back in the day, a COPO or even a Yenko were not sought after cars. Guys identify with Z's and SS Camaros so many car received this "upgrade"...BKH

Very cool piece. Question on the red pinstripe. Would that be the default/usual color pinstripe with black for this X11 application, or was it ordered that way?

[/ QUOTE ] The code for the pinstripe should have been white but the original salesman which is still around ordered the cars this way, Maxton's sold a total of 5 COPO Camaros and I have tracked down all 5 original owners, this particular car was outfitted with a factory 456 rearend, X11, 711 black standard, red pinstripe, whitewalls, rally wheels, am radio, 4 speed M22. All 5 cars were either black or fathom green, automatic and 4 speed but ALL cars were X11 trim package. Thanks to all you guys for the kind words and help.
