Default Re: Original Selling Dealer

Jack Douglas sold a lot of COPO cars, and, was the authorized Yenko distributor for Chicagoland. Ed Cuneen has records on some of the cars sold there, contact the COPO Connection. Jack is still around and remembers the high performance cars well. Back in '69 there would be a line of COPO cars and Yenko Camaros, Chevelles, and maybe a spare Nova on the lot just waiting to be driven away. You could take your pick of a double COPO Camaro with "hockey stick stripe" for about $3900 & change or a Yenko for $400 more if my memory serves me well. They also converted some COPOs to Yenkos,with the approval of Don Yenko and the purchase of the Yenko stripes from Yenko for $400. Mr. Douglas recalls doing 25 to 28 of these stripe additions. I'm curious about whether these car should be considered as Yenko cars since they were approved by Yenko, and, Douglas was the authorized Yenko dealer. Any opinions?
