To further clarify a bit. The Norwood built COPO 9561 would only be coded X-11 or X-44. The first 50 COPO 9737 (Yenko's) would be coded X-66. The remainder of the Yenko's would be X-11 or X-44.

I believe there were some 1969 COPO Camaros built in Los Angeles plant that may not have any X codes.

COPO:
Does this mean that the first 50 '69 Yenko Camaros that had the X66 bodies received them as part of the 9737 COPO? I thought that it was a mixup, and that COPO 9561/9737's were installed in X66 bodies even though they were ordered as base trim cars. What is included on an X66 body?

It appears that most of the first 50 Yenko's were X66 bodies. The X66 is a style trim option that would have included bright tail light trim, Black tail light panel on all but Fathom Green cars. Black rocker panels on all but Fathom Green, and quarter panel trim pieces. The headlight bezels would be plain and no other moldings would be used. Also Copo Camaro's used five leaf rear springs, big block heater box, Special speedo cable code, 4 speed cars use a big block crossmember, a ton of special ZL2 parts in addition to the hood, best advise, hire a pro to look at the car before you spend the long green.
