He sure did Dan. I remember the Kenny Ross Chev. dealership campy t.v. commercials. I think he used his grandma in them.

Re: yenko camaro
Sure I'm not alone when saying I have seen this car in person several times in past years and it is outstanding. If my memory serves me right, I believe Tom bought it new and then reacquired it many years later.

Re: yenko camaro
Should the value of this car be so high? I know it is a well restored low mile car with a really great story but... it is not a 427 Yenko. While I am sure everyone here would love to see it and own it at a fair price would someone pay up to own this novelty?? Should it not command a premium over a 68 396 SS but be worth far less than a 68 Yenko?

Re: yenko camaro
Not his gradmother, it was his Aunt Penny..If you got the deal at Kenny you get a jar of Aunt Penny's jelly.. This car was sold new at Kenny Ross. It is believed dealer traded by Yenko. The original owner never knew it was a Yenko COPO 9737 Camaro. I refound this car at a local Camaro meet near the Pittsburgh Airport,and Frank Arone tried to buy it. The deal for what ever reason did not get done. I remember it was painted black and had KILLER interior. For some reason the entire original interior was never reused in the restoration. Instead it had 100% repo door panels etc installed. I have emails from Tom asking SCW to restore this car and thanking me for my help to break that the car was a 9737 COPO....BKH
