1967 Camaro Pace Car

[JoeC]

Found the article on the 68 Yenko with special paint. It has no paint code on trim tag just has two dashes in paint code field. They claim the car has a body broadcast sheet with “COPO 9737 1001 HA” on it . The article states that the original owner said the car came with no stripe and Yenko added a 67 style nose stripe to the car. They decoded the special COPO numbers to mean the car came with a 427 from factory. This info was later turned into a “only one on the planet” 1968 427 COPO Yenko Camaro raffle car story. I think the 1001HA is just a COPO code for special paint which in this case was stripe delete or maybe Chevy put the 67 stripe on for Yenko.

I have also seen a cowl tag on a '68 Z28 that had the -,- or two dashes. It was a Dark Green like the British Racing Green color I think . . .

I think the blue color used on the 68 Yenko camaros was dropped some time in 68 model year.It was probably current at the time the order was placed.By the time the cars went into production, it was a drop.So -- was used on the blue cars only.Earl
