The white Stage II which I have has "Limited Edition" inserts in the horizontal exterior door handle and it has an aluminum plate with the original owners initials rivited to the front of the shifter console.

Does anyone know if these items were added by Yenko Chevrolet or after the fact?

Who cares how much it cost. How fast are they with a set of slicks? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

OK, excuse my ignorance here folks but how would there be more ZL-1's left if Super Chevy hadn't published the VIN list?

Mike;
It's not due to people's unwillingness to discuss VIN's, I don't think anyone has a list of the 19 VIN's to discuss. There has never been a huge demand for these cars, and if someone was actively looking for one it usually didn't take too long to find one.

Whoever is looking for one, try to find Cryspino's (sp?), I think it's in Scranton, PA and was for sale a few years ago on EBAY I think.

Norm, thanks for the way cool list! I reckon I still don't see how Super Chevy running this list could cause there to be less ZL-1's left though...

Here's one of the info packets on the Turbo Z's. They show up occasionally, good info - especially if you have one of the cars.

The Yenko Turbo Z28 info packet which I got from "SuperHigh"
also has Don's Signature, but signed with a Blue Felt tip marker and the 200 production units is crossed off and 70 is written in underneath.

Did Don Sign all the Packets which were mailed out?

A few questions,, who is this Cryspino you quys speak of??Does he have one for sale?? Also do you guys feel that the Turbo Yenko will ever have it's day in the future as a sought after car or will it never see the same sun light that the earlier Yenkos are having shown upon them??

DM Crispino co-wrote "The Illustrated Camaro Recognition Guide Volume I 1967 to 1969" with John R Hooper.

I also found her name connected to the following International Camaro Club web site (I thought ICC was long gone?)
