I understand from talking to the current owner's son that Walters Chevrolet (now Bowman) in Hebron sold one COPO Camaro, one COPO Chevelle and one Yenko Camaro. I've been able to confirm the Camaro and was also recently able to confirm that they had a Yenko on their lot. The below image is an edit of a full page classified ad from late August 1970:



Seems like $200 wasn't much of an ask to go from an SS350 to a sYc... Wonder if it was Rally or Fathom Green?

Was Bobb Chevrolet in Columbus a COPO dealer?
I've run across a few LS6's from there & see they are still in business.

I think the Walters Yenko Camaro was a used car, originally sold out of ??. We know that there was both a fathom green and a rallye green '69 Y-Camaro in the area of Buckeye Lake, (Buckeye Ocean to the locals )

The Walters Yenko was sold new at Hugh White Chev. in Columbus, and it was RG. They are now a Honda dealer. Ed C. had a pic of the window sticker in his book. Bobb is still in business at the same location. They MAY HAVE sold a COPO car, but it's not documented. A guy in our Camaro Club has a Bobb '68 BY 'vert L78 with 1800 original miles that was a drag car. Very well documented. They sold a lot of Hi-po cars. Walters is 5 miles east of National Trails, and about 35 miles east of downtown Columbus.
Bob McDorman is now in Columbus, but only because they moved the city limits. Jack Maxton is in Columbus, and sold some COPO Camaros, one X-11 Tux. Blk that I'v posted a pic of. Altough not famous for it, Columbus guys like to street race!
