#148 This 69 Yenko Camaro is N663684 and was sold new at Bob Johnson Chevrolet in Wausau WI. It's my understanding that this car still has it's original drivetrain. The original owner was D. Everest. I first saw this car at the SCS in Indy in '99 when it was owned by M. Price. I also saw it at the Chevy Vette Fest in '03 in the large Yenko display when it was owned by J. Deppe. This car was sold at Mecum Indy in '17 for $330K.

#149 This 69 Yenko Chevelle is B358034 and was sold at Gates Chevrolet in Mishawaka IN. The original owner was Clarence Thompson. It was purchased by George Lyons in '89 and restored. It was featured in the February '91 issue of Super Chevy. I believe this car still has it's original engine. This car was at Mecum Indy in '17 where it bid to $210K.

Just like the used one sold at Rogers Chev in Rantoul, Il around 73'... a young lady from the Chanute AFB bought it ... at that time, it was one of three Deuces in Rantoul

Here are more pictures of the 68 Camaro RS/SS that was converted by Dana. This car was purchased new by Bob Tatilian at Cormier Chevrolet in Wilmington CA as an SS350 with an automatic and A/C. The 427 and 4 speed conversion was done at Dana in April of '69. This car was found in Hawaii with less than 2K miles on it and brought back to the mainland by Steve Sandlin. It was restored by the Supercar Workshop and appeared at the inaugural MCACN Show in 2009. It was featured in the October '10 issue of Muscle Car Review. Charlie brought it back to MCACN in '17 for the 50th Anniversary F-Body Display.

What brand of rims are those?

[mrays]

It's my understanding that they are Nickey/Bill Thomas Camaro Wheels manufactured by Rader Wheels. I believe they were an option on these '67 Camaros. Apparently there are only a couple of sets known to exist.

#152 This 68 Yenko Camaro is YS-8023 and was sold new a Branine Chevrolet in Mulvane KS. It is the only known Ermine White 68 Yenko Camaro and the only one with the Special Drag Car tag. This car still has it's original transplant block that is backed by a M-21 and a 4.10 rear. This car was originally restored in the early '90's and appeared in the October '92 issue of Chevy Action when it was owned by M. Price. K. Suydam has since purchased the car and had it restored by the Super Car Workshop. It made it's debut in the 50th Anniversary F-Body Display at MCACN in '17. It was also featured in the May '19 issue of Hemmings Muscle Machines and in their '19 Calendar.

I assume Yenko was required to maintain the smog equipment to be allowed to sell as new cars? If not required, I would have guessed they all got removed during the conversion.
