Green Yenko Camaro at Carlisle GM Show

OK I checked my notes on the car.
There was no 'D80' code on the cowl tag.

The rear end code was 'BE' not CE as previously stated.

The X22 code was there and the date on the cowl tag was 11D.

What was the date that the X codes started being used?

Aside from the 11D date what else on the cowl tag would indicate the date of body production? Is there a sequence to the numbers assigned to body production?

Thamks in advance.

I looked at many cars at Carlisle, so possibly I was mistaken regarding D80(wish I would have taken a pic of the tag). Based on what you have learned do you believe it is a Yenko, and are you pursuing the car? X code date =12B


Also if you have the VIN and body # please share that so it can be documented as not being a yenko.

Are there any known X22 COPOs?

[Steve Shauger]

I have heard of one existing, but i have no first hand information or documentation. Typically found copo x codes are, x66,x44 and x11.

In 35 years of playing with Muscle Cars I have learned that there seldom is a black and white answer to a question or a issue concerning mass produced cars. There always seems to be varying shades of grey and I learned a long long time ago to never say never and never be quick to judge.

This car certainly warrants further investigation. In discussing the car with several people at the show there were some people that felt it could be real.
I personally do not know enough yet to form an opinion.

I do appreciate the comments and information from the board members both posted and in PMs.


Thanks again.
