I believe the Adcock brothers were from Indiana. They used to show up at the Super Chevy Show in Indy every year with a different Camaro. Off hand the one's I remember were a Tuxedo Black 69 Z/28 with red stripes, a Daytona Yellow 69 Yenko Camaro with a black top and stripes, a Hugger Orange Canadian COPO Camaro, a Cortez Silver 69 Z/28 and a Nevada Silver 71 Z/28. They had the Hugger Orange X22 COPO at the Chevy Vette Fest in Chicago. I believe their names were Bob and Larry, but I haven't seen them in 5 or 6 years.

The Adcock brothers of Indiana did have quite a few cars, the silver Z28 was Al Maynards JL8 RS car, LA built, many options, 138k miles, '73 dated block. We found the build-sheet when it was at the detail shop locally. It later sold at Barrett as a numbers matching 38k mile car for $ 185k or so. There was a white Copo/red interior for sale in Ohio years ago, it had a sunroof, wonder if it was this queen city Copo?

Thanks. They are different guys. The Adcocks I know are car guys, but not necessarily "classic" car guys. They have quite an operation at Manheim, PA and own another car auction, too. Many years ago, they did have a green HemiCuda at Atlantic City that sold for $47K (if my memory isn't failing) and jaws hit the floor! Nobody thought that green car with a 1/4 panel replaced would sell for that much.......oh, the good old days!

#109. This Yenko Camaro was sold new at Marshall Chevrolet in Reading PA. This one is N615454 and order NOR219759. It was advertised as having a replacement block, but the original transmission and rearend along with the original Bill of Sale. I believe this car was for sale on the Nickey website at one point as well.

#110. This is ZL-1 #55 and it was sold new at Whitt in Fayetteville AR. It is 1 of 2 RS ZL-1's and has less than 8K miles. It is unrestored and has both it's original block and it's warranty replacement block. It is also documented with it's original POP. This is the very first ZL-1 Camaro I ever saw when it was featured in the September 1982 issue of Super Chevy around the time they released the VIN list for the ZL-1 Camaro's. It was also featured in the March 1991 issue of Car Craft and the October 1991 issue of Musclecar Classics when it was owned by Otis Chandler. It was later sold as a part of Dave Christenholz's collection.
