Default Re: Yenko Camaro drag car

Keith T. sent me this scan of the Hedrick Yenko Camaro and the Yenko "prototype" car from the Super Stock article. The rear panel on the Hedrick Yenko has the Yenko emblem and 427 emblem positioned the way Yenko did most of his Camaros. It is different then the picture that is posted by bbdon. Looks like Hedrick may have changed it for the 1970 season. It seems like a conflict of interest for Hedrick to be involved with "Grump's Group" since Jenkins was involved with the Ammon R. Smith Chevy Dealer from PA. and Hedrick had the Yenko Chevy sponsoship also from PA. but I guess it was not a problem for them.
The Gold "prototype" Yenko has the bowtie in the center with the 427 numbers bolted to it and the Yenko emblem to the pass side. I have read that the Gold Yenko was a demo car and I wonder if it is a early vin. number Yenko.
