Interesting story and while there may be some or even all truth to it, it is very far fetched, unlikely and improbable.
Obviously if Glockner did have 20 COPOs in one place at one time (?) all would have had to been on the grounds prepped with none presold in order for him to have test driven all the cars. Most dealers who sold a few of the cars had one or two as a demo,but many had not one single Super Car Demo. |

Stefano, That was kind of my thought, I cant imagine a dealer letting a guy drive twenty cars, or for that matter what would be the point of driving twenty of the same cars. The information my friend has so far indicates between two and seven cars. So far the most convincing information has two Dusk Blue, one Burgandy, and one Frost Green. This site is the place for the truth to come out. Thanks.

Here is link for Scioto Co. Dealers... Glockner has several other franchises. I agree the story seems far-fetched... just passing on what I was told. The cars were packed pretty tight in a small garage and there were some other BB Camaros also. This was maybe 15 years ago so details are very fuzzy.

I know of at least two 70 model Yenko Duece that were sold at Glockners. One was red and was owned by someone in South Shore Kentucky and the other was yellow own by Danny Patton of Portsmouth Ohio.

I used to own the Burgundy Glockner COPO VIN 638868 (photo attached). It had the original window sticker. I wrote Glockner a letter in about 2004 and offered $$ for docus - also called. All old docs destroyed, they said.
Also have another Glockner car - 67 L78 Camaro. They were apparently real HIPO sellers! Dave |
