Fake Yenko Beats Real Yenko in show

[CamarosRus]

Jeff, You were right on the mark.......I was just making another poor attempt to be sarcastically funny about bringing my clone and where I should park it. I have always stated everywhere that my 69 Camaro is a clone. It is a pretty good looking cosmetic clone.....(except for one paint problem yet to be fixed)......but with most numbers being wrong and trim tag not matching.......there would be nobody here I'd ever try to fool.....
My car is a Day 2 Clone in that it has headers, Sun Tach, Stewart Warner Gauges, and a WRONG but nice B&M floor shift. I wanted the column auto to function, but header collectors prevented use of stock linkage.
I am driving car to and from SCR8, so no I wont be impressing anybody at Drag Strip with its lack of Power. If I was to break anything, I'd have NO way to get car back to Springfield, IL where my friend Dennis Thomas is so kindly storing car this summer.
I drove my "clone" on part of the 2005 Hot ROd Power Tour...which Charley can attest to as he passed me on the way to Nashville..........
later, Chuck S

Looks like it was a no-sale after a "kid" bid on it? Price has been adjusted down:

Chevrolet : Camaro F Body - 1969 YENKO CAMARO 427 450 HORSE POWER

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

What a way to start a muggy Sunday morning. I thought my day was going to be boring until I read this thread, man was I wrong. I can't wait for the made for TV version to come out.

I hve limited access to internet where I currently am so can't read all above comments, but found this thread interesting as i have a bit of personal info on this car. Thot you might be intersted in this info. I believe I sat next to this car for 2 days at Russo & Steele Auction this January. Am not a SYC expert by any stretch but the car was a beauty. A very quality resto. I was surprised at what it went for given the quality of resto and the purported NOS and original parts - I believe if you go to the R&S site you will see that it sold for mid70s or 80K. I am surprised that it took only 8 bidders to rack up the 150K price for this car with such a scant ad - short write up and a few pictures. This one just makes me scratch my head. someone made a ton of money in a very short period of time! Why didn't the r&s auction bring out these kinds of bids?????
