COPO,
Was that an insult? You certainly qualify for Politician of the month with your last post [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Marlin and JoeC,
If you ever happen to be misfortunate enough to acquire one of the 22 Douglass Sold Yenkos, please call me first as I will be more than happy to purchase the car at a substantial discount to the Cannonsberg Yenkos, No B.S.

Dana does not own the other Dover White Douglass Yenko, it belongs to Gary Liko, in Florida and was restored to the original Yenko Stripe and Badge configuration by Milt Robson,(Thanks Milt). It also maintains the distinction of having been featured as a Yenko in Several Publications
(Just stating the facts guys)and carries the very next sequential Body Number to My Car.

The black and White Contrast is stunning in person, IMO.

BTW, Why did Don Build Yenko Chevelles in Dover White?

[NWYENKO]

Is there an inventory of the other 20 Douglass cars denoting colors and transmissions?? What about other options on those cars? Did they all have chambered exhaust? I do have to agree with Marlin that if the cars don't glow in the dark from being parked on the contaminated lot behind Don's dealership, they are not Yenkos. This is not to take anything away from the Douglass cars as I think they are very unique especially after what I have learned following this thread. I think this entire discussion should have a positive impact on the value of those cars!! Just my $.02 worth Jim [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Jim,
What we have first and foremost is the Cars themselves as I have previously mentioned and this seems to be overlooked. Where did Don Yenko get the info. to quote the 22 Figure?

The only trans options were M40/Console and M21 close ratio.

All were X11 D80 Endura Bumper.

All were 9561 and 9737 w/factory tac and 140 Speedo.

At least most were to have been Chambered exhaust.

Radio equipment went from radio delete to AM/FM stereo.

All were to have the aux. lighting package.

Some, Power Steering.

Some, Rosewood Wheel

Some, Vinyl Top

Tinted Glass

None with RS.

Any period /correct Wheel Tire combo. was available for installation prior to delivery.

All standard 711 trim black interior.

2 White
1 Black for certain but probably 2
2 Red
2 Gold
2 Fathom Green
4 Daytona Yellow
2 Hugger Orange (4 total possible)
2 Lemans Blue
2 Dusk Blue
2 Silver
2 Rally Green

Jack has always stated 25 total while Don Yenko's number is 22 Jack Douglass Ordered Yenkos.

For many years I had heard but have never seen the proported extra Yenko Sheet with 20 to 25 additional Yenkos on it.

This story is Urban Legend and was routinely discussed at some of the local shows amungst the Super Car knowledgeable, but no I never seen it, nor have any confirmation that it even exists.

[NWYENKO]

Thanks Stephano, How many are accounted for? Do you know of the survival of the silver ones?? What an awesome combination that would be!! Man, can you imagine showing up at a show with one of the other colors?? I almost got into it with a guy that told me that the Deuce was not real since it was a small block and was not green according to "the guy with the Handlebar mustache on TV". Great story about very unique cars and I think very desirable, however as I said IMHO still not "Yenkos". Seams like a subject that some of us will have to agree to disagree. Great topic. Look at the productive manhours lost. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] Jim

Stefano, no insult, in fact, a compliment. Now your politician crack on the other hand........ [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Stefano;
If I ever happen to own a Douglas COPO car, you will get the first call - but the price will be higher than Brian's Yenko [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Just because Don quoted 22 cars doesn't mean that he had a contract with Douglas. It could mean that he sold Douglas 22 sets of stripes, it could mean anything - the only thing it tells me is that there was no 'meeting of the minds' if there is a difference in the amount of cars that each person says was sold under this proposed agreement; 22 vs. 25. If Don references the 22 cars, why didn't he refer (in writing) to the price paid for these stripes, or the other particulars (in writing) about the proposed agreement?

I agree to disagree, I don't want to beat a dead horse. My only point is that there is too little info to conclude that there was any formal contract between Don and Jack to create authentic copies of THE Yenko Camaro.

I hope your car does well at the auction,

[Stefano]

Lets see: Walks like a duck, talks like a Duck ,looks like a duck but Runs like a Yenko, therefore must be a COPO.

Has the same father and mother, but considered a Bastared since it was not conceived on a certain , radio active piece of Pa soil.
