Re: 1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert
That camaro was someones custom. the side louvers on the fenders are off a '78 Z-28 so that alone should show that it was made years later than the Yenko's were. The Flairs are aftermarket like they were for something other that a Camaro. The front spoiler just doen't look right and would be prone to drag going into a driveway. In my opinion the overall look is too boxish to be a Yenko. In no way does it resemble the Green car.

Re: 1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert
Are there any other 70 -73 Yenko Camaros out there? I had no idea they were still doing conversions in the 70's.....

Re: 1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert
That would be a nice ride. Any pics of that black one by chance? (Sounds a bit like the 'So Fast'(plates) black RS w/ flares & L-88 hood that skulked the streets in the twin cities in the late 80's/early 90's). I remember a particularily cool grudge run in about 92 where he lined up against an '89 Anniversary T/A w/ NOS/ Slicks when Redrock got speed bumps and the Lafayette bridge was down for the summer so the racing occured on the frontage road near Robert St.. If that's the same Camaro, it's brutal. Earl I believe I met you through Ron B. at Buster's this summer. Same car by chance? Also, Lethal...what's the update on your green one?

Re: 1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert
The speed bumps are gone now. But you can get a ticket for just watching now. There were rumors that a cop even made a run against someone. I lived across the river then in s.s.paul.

Re: 1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert
I've got plenty of nice heated space for it. I'll come tomorrow to pick it up. Of course I won't tell you where I live, security rasons & all.
