Awesome...that bdy # is smack dab in the middle of the other X-11 Yenko's. They must have all come down the line together. William, would that be correct?

Jude,
The vins on the X11 Yenkos range from N613xxx to N616xxx. The earliest X44 car in the second Yenko order is a 02D built car N608xxx, 10 body numbers from this orange X11 Yenko car. They definately did not go down the assembly line by body number. Parts availability (BE 12 bolt) was probably the most important factor as to when the cars were assembled/vin assigned on the line. This explains the large discrepancy between body numbers of normal production cars and Copo cars.

Well they would be close. The X11 Yenko here in town is BDY 219833 but 143 units later. It is a Daytona Yellow/black vinyl automatic with a factory console, power steering, endura bumper, special interior group. I know of no other Yenko Camaro like it. I wonder if it was ordered for a specific customer.

William,
Yenko Camaro Bdy # 219830 is also an X11, console auto, hugger orange/black vinyl with special interior group. All the X11 Yenko Camaros have the special interior group for some reason.

Does anyone have the page [SYC paperwork] this group is on?

This subject has been discussed on this site before. Maybe I can add a little bit from my personal experience at the St. Louis Assy plant. Body numbers were assigned at the time that the order was keyed into the system. vins were assigned when the unit was released for line production. Production release on blanket orders was triggered by dealer green light - then component availability sequenced them in. COPO orders were manually flagged. The manual system wasn't fool proof at all - I remember car bodies sitting off line on the dollies for days (sometimes weeks) in St. Louis waiting for major components. Lots of times co-op students (like me at the time) would be assigned to follow the production and make sure that the COPO attribute was built. So - getting the COPO units produced in batches made it easier for knuckleheads like me to manually follow the production and give the line a "heads up". I remember baby sitting an L88 Corvette that we made for the king of Greece - unfortunately it got into the OK lot just before the strike (Thanksgiving until Christmas). Fortunately for us (the co-op students) we all got to "test drive" it during the strike!

Bill, I believe that the reason vin &amp; corresponding bdy #'s has never been published is due to the cloning issue and the fact that trim tags are so easily repoped. I have a short list (only about 15 cars) that I can email to you
