Does anyone know this 1969 Yenko Camaro

[hvychev]

I just checked my e-mail and I already got a response from Gary Dyer. I am going to post it word for word.

Yes I bought the car from Craig Jensen. It is vin#579586. It was verified by Vince Emme as an original X66 (first 50 Yenkos) Yenko and sold through Jack Douglas Chevrolet. My son and I did the restoration with help from Rich Gibodowski who did the paint. It is an original engine & rear car, and did have one sleeve in the block.

The car won Chevy Vette Fest, Camaro Nationals, and was a special invite to Super Chevy Indy.

I sold the car to a guy in Wisconsin that is a car collector. Can't remember his name though. Sold it for $60,000 back in 95 or 96.

Also had a 68 Yenko Camaro(413680?), 3 69 Yenko Chevelles, 69 427 Nova, and the first 68 Dick Harrell Nova(68 COPO Nova L78 Auto converted by Dick Harrell.)

I have sold all my cars and am now enjoying my grandkids and working on blowers.

Thanks for the interest.

Seems like a cool guy. He must have read the post since he mentioned the sleeved block thing. I never mentioned it in the e-mail. The more info we get on these cars the better.
