Hey Rick. They are red. If I recall correctly they are close to the build date of 06E I will dig them out from the totes. We boxed up 25 totes of parts. As time went by the OO told his family that the car was to be sold only to me at a fair price ..if something happened to him....and luckily he is in good health with many years ahead of him to enjoy the car and our friendship .

Rick I stand corrected they are black and I have yet to find them I know they’re in a cardboard box

OK..thank you.
I would've guessed Red with the custom bkts. ordered.

Neat car and history.

Question... who welded the axle tubes? See it in the video but no mention of it. Is that something the owner had Don do or something he did on his own at a later time?

Well let me first start off with a HUGE Congratulations my VERY good friend Doug Perry on his newest purchase !!! This car could not have gone to a BETTER person !! I have known of the Superman Yenko for almost 20 yrs. I remember hearing of these stories from Brian Henderson.. I always thought it was a "Unicorn" didn't think we would EVER see this car. The orig. owner was not a fan of the public.. he is not the HEY.. look at me kinda of guy. Probably why this car has sat for more then 45 yrs behind closed doors. The orig owner and Doug hit it off right from the beginning and grew to be good friends over the next 9 yrs. And of coarse we do know why this Camaro was nick named the Superman Yenko ??? with its rare color combination.. Bright Nantucket Blue body.. Black hat and Red Interior :) Just my .02 cents..

The "MOF"

Don schooled his sales team. I bet he heard every excuse: strange colors, last years model, high window sticker, robbing parts. He drained the kids pockets.
All these years later, best thing that ever happened to the original owner.
