Marlin, what is your experience with the 1969 Yenko Camaros ?
Do you know when a specific car was ordered, so that you can see today that cars ordered at the same time don´t have sequential bodynumbers ?

I don´t have any proof of it, but I have been told that bodynumber 353001,353003 and 353005 are known Malcolm Konner cars.
Is the owner of 353003 out there, and can confirm that your car came from MK ?
Or are the owners of 353002 and/or 353004 out there, and know that your cars did not come from MK ?

Hi Anders,

The short answer is 'no', I don't have any info that shows that cars ordered together have/don't have sequential body numbers. The reason is because we don't know when a specific dealer placed their orders, even though we might know that a specific dealer received 10 cars for example - we don't know the production sequence that GM decided to produce them under. The more dealers involved with ordering cars under a particular copo, the more variability - and the higher the possbility of non-sequential bodies going to a given dealer.

I'm no expert on the COPO Camaro bodies, but have studied them in some detail to determine similarities to the Nova body numbers.
