Re: E-Bay '69 Yenko Disguised As a Z-28 Clone!
Back in the mid 80's I worked with a guy named Mark(he was the manager of the tire store that I worked at) that had '69 Camaro. The car was in Z/28 trim with a small block and a 4 speed and was a very nice car. Come to find out the car was originally an SS396/375 that he cloned into a Z/28 that he would autocross(car was stiff and lowered) once in a while. One day he cleaned out his garage at home and brought a bunch of stuff to the shop to throw away. One of the items was the original 396 short block that came out of the Camaro that he set aside for the scrap man..... yes he threw away the numbers matching 396/375 block for his car. He said it was still good but was .060 over. I was gonna grab it but didn't want to put it in the trunk of my '70 Monte Carlo.
