My error.I incorrectly described the buildsheet.This car here has the same buildsheet and trim tag format as yours.
I did find a Daytona Yellow 1969 COPO Chevelle on the cover of the June 1989 NCOA Chevelle Report that is owned by a Jay Hughes.The Similarities between your car and his are uncanny.Then when I realized he lives in Puslinch,Ontario,I would assume this is the car you own today.Am I correct?

MR 70, yes this Chevelle used to be owned by Jay. And wow, three Canadian COPO's that are double COPO's. Thanks for the info! By the way, when did GM stop putting the -- on firewall tags for special order paint. The reason I ask is that in the mid 80's, I almost bought a 74 Z28. It was black at the time but I could see traces of yellow in places and when I looked at the tag it had the -- for paint.

Here is a pic of a Daytona Yellow Yenko Chevelle with a vinyl top on the Yenko carrier truck. I don't know where this car is, or to which dealership this truck was headed. Brian??
