Re: Lowest milage 69 Yenko Camaro?
The Atlas wheels were available prior to the 69 model year, and it wasn't just the Supercars that could get them at Yenko, it was anyone willing to buck up. There is a royal plum 67 Camaro SS that still resides near Canonsburg that wears an SW 970 tach on the column and 14" Atlas mag wheels. It was reportedly sold new at Yenko in this configuration and is still owned by the original owner who ordered these additional options to be installed. I think BKH may be able to speak more about the car.
While I agree it's entirely possible that "other" wheels were installed at Yenko besides the commissioned Atlas mags, I don't think this advertisement or possible typo is the documentation we need to say one way or the other. For now we know for sure Don used Atlas castings and in many cases reused the factory supplied tires, outside of that I've seen nothing that convincingly points in any other particular direction. A good topic of discussion and cool paperwork for sure Marlin, thanks for posting.
