Re: Cool local 69 Z
Yes, it was in a magazine, but i don't recall what mag it was... i know it was OLD, like early 80's I think... Might have been Musclecar Review, but I'm not sure... I should have took note, but was too into looking at the car itself. The issue had a cool story on all the musclecars in Johnstown. Would like to have a copy myself! Next time i see the guy I'll find out for sure. -JB

Re: Cool local 69 Z
Thanks for the pictures Joe! IMO, any color combo looks great on 69 Camaro's, even 76/76 with yellow houndstooth. I love them all. Aside from a couple RPO differences, this Z reminds me of Charley's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif
Out of curiosity, was your Deuce the only Supercar at this car show? If so, were you approached by people asking you what a Yenko Deuce Nova is, or what Yenko means? How about other shows you have attended? I am still convinced that alot of musclecar enthusiasts don't know the significance of these cars, know they exsist, or were even built. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif |

Mr. T, i agree theres no "bad" color combo for a 69 Z if it's restored correctly, or is as original as this one. In fact, the "oddball" colors and combos are usually some of my favorites.
As for supercars at the cruise-in, no, there were no other supercars there, but there WERE some pretty cool/rare musclecars, including numerous real-deal Hemi mopars, and some nice classic corvettes. Yes, many people ask what a Yenko is, in fact, one guy said "Those Yenkos looked almost like Novas" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif While many don't know what the car is, I'm always happy to explain the Yenko legend to them, and enjoy all the questions I get. Canonsburg is only about 2 hours from here, so there ARE a few people who know some info about Yenko, at least enough to be dangerous. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif One of the most frequent comments I do hear is that it "Can't be real, because Yenko's were all big blocks" I agree the "masses" don't understand or know much about Yenko, or supercars in general, but then again I don't know a ton about Mopars, or Shelbys, etc... The knowledge of stuff comes with your own personal interest. On that note, here's a few other pics of some neat local cars that were also there, I really don't know too much about them, other than that they are cool. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Heres a badass black/red 69 GTX for starters: https://www.yenko.net/attachments/210408-ebay071.jpg |
