Even though the Yenko paperwork clearly shows 107 VINs,
1967 Yenko Camaros IMO, when it comes to such cars, the number built is not as important as the number of documented cars that exist today. Such as '69 Yenko Novas, 9 known to exist, how many built/sold 37, 40, ? The problem is some of the lists seem to contain both converted and unconverted cars, and of course factor in documented cars that are not on the list, then the number built/sold is really subject to debate. On the other hand, it is easier to get close to the number of documented cars known to exist. Of course Don did not help matters when questioned about numbers built.

That’s true but a lot of people ask how many were made as well as how many found.
If you research the 107 list, it becomes apparent that there is something seriously wrong with the first half. A few have been identified as not being 427 Camaros and the known documented early car is not on the list. The first half of the 107 list is just a vin list and is not a Yenko inventory list. Most of them are ghost cars with no information, no Yenko Stock number, no color, no dealer info, nothing.
This first half of the 107 list shown on here is all blank except for the vin.
I don’t think the 107 number is accurate for 1967 Yenko 427 Camaro Production. IMO
The second half of the 107 list is where the 54 Yenko 427 Super Camaros are with YS 7xx numbers and inventory info.
The known early car is YS 604 and is a March build. If you count all the vins between the last YS 6xx vin and the first YS 7xx vin there can only be a about 10 cars.
I have heard of a YS 606 so I use 6 as the min and 16 as the max. Add that to the 54 YS 7xx cars and I get between 60 and 70.
I believe Don exaggerated the 107 list for promotional reasons as he did on many other occasions.
A more accurate number for the 1967 Yenko 427 Camaro is
60-70 as far as I can tell.
