Welcome aboard!.
Your info uncovered so far looks promising and we're looking forward to seeing the POP pics too!.

Below attached pic of the Glockner lot has been posted here before, possibly even the subject car in this shot?!

Wasn't Glockner a Yenko network dealer too?.
Is it known if they delivered Yenko Camaros as well as the 'regular' L72 Copo Camaros they sourced themselves?.

a little hint for taking closeups with a digital camera

there is a button (the macro) that looks like a flower

you engage/enable/turn it on - it to take closeup pictures [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

well i will tell ya one thing, i have been informed that there is a copo out there that is only 5 cars away from mine, when i was a kid someone told me that this car was sold with a sister car ordered with it, im not getting excited but the glockner photo seems to prove it, seems to brothers bought these to "sister cars" and kept them until i guess they got sold to different owners, the rumor has it this is true, but the cars looked almost identical, seems the photo from glockner adds more evindence to the theory maybe, who ever found it HEY thanks for being so kind in sharing that info and photo, this confirms the old sister cars theory, but on the real side who really knows right?
thank you for telling me about the macro button i did know it existed but forgot that i read about it in the manual when i bought it, i will try it again.
anybody have any input on the hammer marks next to my rear diff stamping?? is been that way for over 25 yrs so is it a mistake or what? it looks like they stamped it at the factory as one thing, found out they screwed it up and corrected it?? but to correct it they had to do it before they date stamped it, because if they date stamped it then "BE" stamped it then they would be to close together right???

now on the red 69 Z28 this was a fun car, neighbor owned it down the road, i never drove it until i started to like my own car, which was a couple of yrs after i got it, after he found out i had a 69, we were pretty close, it was as original as my own car, he got it for 2500 bucks in 1982 or so, i found out when he brought it over to my place, i drove it alot and took it to some cruise in's and up town, i might have driven it more than him, he acted scared to drive it. let me tell ya it was a fast little small block all the way down to the 4.10 gears in the back, at least i think it had them because it really revved going down the road, the trans always whined loudy, but never went out?? hmmm are you thinking what im thinking? M22 which we didnt even know about back then, it was a very fun car, no crossram but a holley and headers and such.i have lost track of him after i went to college but i bet i could find him, i know his parents real well, i remodeled there whole house about 12-15 yrs ago. my car wasnt driven until about 84 or so might have been 83 i really havent narrowed it down, and dont feel it really necesary, but he didnt tell anyone i had it. dad told him not to tell, funny thing he never did tell?? i am going to try to get more photos, we will have bad weather tuesday and i wont be going to work on the new cape cod, so i might stay in the shop and re-take some photos, i did finally learn how to get them on the site yeah ! ! ! ! ! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] i will try the macro button and see what it does for close ups,
has anyone heard of the number "2" being offset on the 4 speeds before?, both of mine have offset, but only the number "2" ?? i will try to get a close up of it and send it in, it looks like something was wrong with the "2"?? it did it both times on the vin of my trans??? does this happen alot or what, they didnt even try to correct it?? i dont know i will look at it again.
thanks for everyones suggestions, i will keep it touch and try to answer all the question.
your helping and caring is appreciated.

daves 68 car and my 69 are the 2 cars i have that are somewhat done, the other 68 and 69 i have are in storage and im begining to work on them, dad says at least get the parts while you can son. but i gotta find out about my car first and get it back together, prefferably to get it out of my shop.
i have some other family vehicles to work on also my little 3 cylinder metro, it gets 48 miles to the gallon, now why cant other cars do that???

i also have a 83 Z28, wifey wants me to fix it up and let her drive it. it was bought about 12 yrs ago, it has the crossfire injection, it was kinda sluggish to drive, but i bet with some asking around i could make it fly again, it hasnt been touched either, its all original, interior is mint except for the "sudden" headliner falling down in storage, but back in the day finding one of these and maybe even now might not be to hard to do, its comfy to drive though. are these somewhat hard to find now? i heard they only made the 83 and 84 camaro's with the crossfire fuel injection? ive been told there hard to find, anyone else know? mine is blue interior and a silverish blue exterior, but it didnt have rear disc, i converted them to disc, kept the original rear, but now there is no pressure to the back brakes, none at all!!! i had it with it and pulled it back to the storaged place havent touched it for years. most of my hobbies are at the right place, its just not the right time.
theres a time and a place for everything right?

1982-83 Camaros had the optional 305 with crossfire injection.

holy toledo ! ! !!
here is a new photo using the macro button
ENIO45 WAS RIGHT!!!!!
it does have a "C" stamped in the rear diff, 3 spaces before the "BE" , why so far away? maybe the hammer marks were done by someone before me or even me as a kid???
the trans says P9?05B, it has marks on it from prying the mid plate off of the trans, it was corroded on when i was a kid and i broke it getting it off.
i will be the first here to admit i was wrong on the stamping.
i just never touched the rear diff stamp until tonight and sanded the surface to get it good and clean and there it was a big fat "C" in front of the "BE"
you learn something everyday huh?
