I think the Mecum description is referring to Ed C's www.copo.com site. The cars are actually listed on the site as Douglass Yenko Camaros. I think it is very clear where Ed C. stands on this discussion.

The difference in value between a COPO and Yenko is pretty substantial.Isn't that what this thread is really all about?Yenko = $$$$$

I think all the owners of the Douglass Copo Yenkos wanted was that the cars to be recognized as such or the right to be sold with that heritage financial gain or no financial gain.

Well their you have it folks. The longest thread in the history of the sYc. An informative and controversial one at that.

Opinions and theorys were expressed, points were made, and feelings were hurt. The bottom line is people have their own opinion and minds already made up. Nothing can change that.

And in the tradition of Jerry Springer......Thats my final thought.

Whats that they say in Hollywood? Oh, <font color="red">That's a rap! </font color> [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Tom,
I can only reley on the information I have. I certainly could be wrong or missinformed, but to the Best of my knowledge Jack Douglass was the exclusive Yenko Sports car dealer for the 1969 "Mean Ones" Super Cars.

He was required to order one truck load of 1969 sYcs to secure the market area and said there was no written agreement between Don and himself. I only have this info because he said so.

If you have any information of the retail sale of one of the 1969 sYcS originating from another dealer in the state for the time period he maintained that exclusive right, then by all means please share and I will stand corrected.

Jack Douglass Chevrolet was not a dealer in 1966, 1967, 1968 or 1970-after for sYc and he has never stated that he was.

He did reopen the old point as a Corvette Muscle car specialty interst vehicle retail point but they sold used cars.

Bob,
A market value for three Drivable Douglass' has been established and from what I see it is equivelant to any other Yenko Camaros. If the other owners want to dicsuss the offers which they have turned down that is up to them.

You had a world record cash offer on the Black Chevelle COPO and at the time it was equal to Yenko Chevelle Dollars. If it was only about the money I believe that you too would have sold it and it was not even one of the 10 Douglass COPO*Yenko Chevelles which Jack Direct ordered.

Our society is based on $$$$.00 but this thread to me is just trying to establish that which was. Not to long ago I was told it never even took place.

Brian,
No I do not do it out of disrespect, I just can't spell.

Stefano, correct me if I am wrong, but now you are stating that there was no written agreement between Jack and Don? I thought the fact that there was a written agreement was the basis for your earlier arguments. In fact, I replied that since you said that part of the agreement was that Jack wouldn't disclose the ordering process to other Chevy dealers was the reason that that document would never surface. Are you just getting flustered or is Jack telling you to back off? This is an amazing turn of events, IMO.
bkpah, or whatever it is, please don't be an a$$.

No, Jack has not changed his Story nor have I. Legally binding business agreements do not necessarily have to be in writing to be both valid and enforceable.There are a few exceptions but they do not apply here IMO.
