Wonder how they insure it? 69 or 08. Gotta be some high insurance on a 2008 427 powered vehicle. Why don't people call their stuff what it is. "it is not a rebody" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
Sounds like "Clintonese"..."I did not rebody this Camaro".

They say that the cars are a continuation in the series, and are clearly marked on the vin tag as "yenko series". Don Yenko didn't build them so, its someone else's idea of what the car should be.

They talk about authenticity, and trying to replicate the cars as best as they can, but I see a comfort grip steering wheel on the car in the magazine. I have never seen a comfort grip wheel on a 69 Yenko Camaro. They have the rims mounted on firestone wide oval tires, but the copo package had rallyes with E70x15 wide tread tires, right? Yenko offered the atlas wheels as an option, but I thought those also had the wide tread gt tires. The continuations also have a "rock crusher" M22 in the car, but all 4 speed cars were equipped with M21s, right? Did any 4 speed cars have power steering in 69? I thought only the automatic equipped cars had that option. Thats 4 big things that I spotted within a few minutes of looking at the article. I'm sure there are more things.

It would be cool to have a completely new 69 Camaro decked out in the yenko treatment, and I think that is what is attracting the younger buyers. I guess there are options you can add to the car to have it like you would want it, but that that strays away from the concept of an exact clone/recreation/contiuation...ect.... if you deviate from what "the man" did in 69. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif
