#116. This is 1 of 2 Dover White Douglass Yenko Camaros. This one is N649011 and is an 05D car. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe all of the Douglass ordered Yenkos are 05D cars. This car has a CE block, but it's original transmission and rear end. I remember seeing this car at the Super Chevy at Joliet when J. Platania owned it back 2003 or so. A number of people thought it was a clone because it was white. Most people back then didn't know what a Douglass ordered Yenko was.

#117. This 68 Nova COPO is #28 and was sold new at Bill Allen Chevrolet in Kansas City MO. I believe the sign said it was super tuned by Dick Harrell. This is the former &quot;Rats Nest&quot; race car that was at MCACN a few years ago in as found condition. This is 1 of 3 known Matador red COPO Novas and 1 of 10 built.

Wish it would have been restored to &quot;Rat's Nest&quot;
condition...

I was fortunate to be able to see the car at MCACN 2014 and I was able to talk to Brian Henderson at the display. The restoration is unbelievable and it was a joy to meet and talk to Brian too.

If the car would have been the &quot;Rats Nest&quot; from new, it may have been a consideration. But the fact it was a Fred Gibb/Dick Harrell super tuned 396 COPO Nova outweighed its racing configuration to the owner. It could always be returned to the Rats Nest..BKH
