the early baldwin, nickey, berger, and yenko cars were all conversions, many woudl have 6cyl vins. 99%of the later cars were COPO orders that woudl have had V8 vins. there were still some conversions around as some cars were built without the "heavy duty" suspension that GM actualy stuck to their guns about requiring on any big block COPO car. many dealerships jsut ordered 6bangers, a 12bolt, cowl hood, and the engine from, the parts department and assembled the masterpiece in house.

yes i read too much.
