Re: 69 Yenko Nova ?s
 

Marlin, great old thread. What's the status of the brown car you posted. Looks like a street warrior for sure. It's amazing that 35 years after these cars were built how many mysteries surround them. Who remains left in the Yenko family who may have a scrapbook or personal recollection to clear up some of this? Forgive me if my questions sound basic but I am new to the site and don't really know where you guys have gone with this in the past or who I am posting these questions to. I have soaked up more Chevy knowledge in the past 6 months than I have in the past 38 years. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif Thanks Guys, Marc

That car is now owned by John Oehler, and it was at the reunion. The pic was taken years before GH bought the car from GD.

I'm trying to post the best vintage '69 Yenko Nova pic I have, stay tuned.

There we go, the 6 cyl bezels I was talking about, with Yenko's own 427 emblems situated ahead of them. Note the 427 emblem is slightly higher than dead center, as I assume the lead pin on the 4 utilized the original 396 bezel's leading hole. Also note the connecting bar on the bottom of the 427 emblem is filed slightly on it's leading edge to correspond with the the angle of the Nova's wrap around eyebrow molding. This practice has been documented on some original 69 Yenko Chevelles as they shared a similar fender eyebrow molding as well. Pretty neat.

Great picture. Just what we were looking for. Love the stickers plastered everywhere also. Day 2 look on day 3!

Re: 69 Yenko Nova ?s
 

The entire pic is really cool, mailbox hood scoop and all. However, it's too big to post the whole thing, and it's not very clear either. Wish I had more!

Re: 69 Yenko Nova ?s
 

Marlin, can you post me the entire pic ([email protected])? I can tweak it so that it fits and may even be able to improve the quality.

Re: 69 Yenko Nova ?s
 

You got it, it's on the way!
