I think they are Fathom Green cars, just a bad reprint of the colors...BKH

That is correct. I have several of the original photos taken that day, and its clear the dark colored cars are fathom green, not black. To my knowledge, there has never been a documented 1969 COPO Camaro originally ordered from Yenko that was finished in anything besides the standard 6 "Yenko colors".

Its also interesting to note there are at least a couple X11 cars with factory painted-on fender pinstripes in those pics. I wonder if these were always removed prior to applying the Yenko stripes, or if a few cars could have ended up with them left on, since they would have been below the Yenko applied stripes.
