can you tell me what color the first car in the second row and the 4th car over in the second row are

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
They look black, but I would say fathom green.

the 5th car in the second row we think is mine. It is the only known Orange, no vinyl top style trim car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...n_img_0870.jpg And it looks like I need a grill emblem.

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
All cars came to Yenko with the grill emblem. Most, but not all of the cars had the grill emblem removed as well as the tail panel bowtie...BKH

Interesting on-line &quot;color matching&quot; tool located here. Copy the Yenko photo above to your computer, then upload it to that page. Click once anywhere in the photo and it will tell you what color is where you clicked. Most of the 1st car in the second row says Black. But, if you click more toward the upper 1/3rd of the car it has a hard time and shades more to browns/greens.

Who has the DY Yenko Chevelle on the carrier, is it Mark Rupps?

The DY Chevelle on the carrier has a vinyl top. Clearly not Rupps..BKH

Agree, is it known where it is?

How cool to have a picture of your car when it was at the dealership. That's a rarity.

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
On the orange Camaro in front, can you guys tell if it has a vinyl top or not? My car is Hugger Orange, black vinyl top, style trim, and endure bumper. I'm just wondering if this is the same car. And also this car seems to have white stripes, and what looks like white pinstriping, even though the vinyl top (if so equipped) was black.

Any way to identify the cars in these two pics? I know from reading this thread that a couple have been identified. Does any one know the dates the photos were taken? Also are there any other known photos of Yenkos at the dealerships? If so it would be great if we could start a post of Original Yenko photos for historical and viewing pleasure!

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
Charley, I just &quot;learned&quot; something (noticed for the first time) after all of these years. I never knew that any Yenkos had pin stripes along with the Yenko side stripes. And, I'm in agreement with Brian about the blue Bowtir grill emblem being removed. I remember reading that elsewhere some time ago. I'm surprised at myself about those pin stripes.

Kurt S 02-17-2014 02:14 AM

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
The pin stripes were only with style trim cars (or RPO D96) - very few Yenkos had style trim.

I'm assuming this Yenko is accounted for?

Notice the Daytona Yellow (2nd. car/2nd. row) with the optional VE3 Endura front bumper... wonder how many of those cars saw the sYc conversion???

Nice. I bet that thing rode like a brick! I had Schonye put some wide rims on a deuce he restored for me a while back, and they had to come right back off. It was torture. :)Does the Citrus deuce still live? Reminds me of the vintage pic of Ron Normans deuce he sold.

I would think that all the Yenko 9561 COPO Camaros were sold as Yenko Super Camaros.

But why would all 9561 purchasers at the Yenko dealership want the flashy stripes etc?
Surely L72 Camaro buyers were there who liked and wanted the sedate look...and with a lot full of 'em he'd sell them one!

There was at least one car sold minus stripes per the Yenko inventory sheets..BKH

Stefano 04-07-2014 01:36 PM

Re: '69 Yenko photo
 
It was still a Yenko Super Camaro even without the stripes.

Was Yenko already closed by the time the EPA declared the property dangerous? If Yenko was still open, what became of the cars in the yard? Did the EPA really make Yenko destroy all the cars?

Stripes were installed per previous owners request.

even when the stripe kit was installed, they didn't always use the complete set.

have seen original pics with the hood arrow missing or the sYc missing from the headrests

I've posted these before. No hood stripe, no Yenko SC on the quarters, no Yenko or 427 badge on a very real car.
