Re: Yenko paperwork for creating the COPO option?
Ed, I believe someone told me at the Supercar reunion in 2004, that Yenko ordered 70 L-78 Camaros in 1968. 64 were converted to 427 power, and 6 were sold with their original 396 powerplants.
But now I remember reading an article written by Brian H. and Tom C. I believe. I think they said that 75 L-78 cars were probably ordered, and 65 of them were converted. Is this as close to the truth as we can come today ?
