69 YENKO NOVA NO STRIPES

Thanks for clearing that up guys.

The car in question here is my own personal car. Has been for quite a few years. The car was special ordered at Yenko. I have the entire Yenko file folder for the car. It was ordered in Nutmeg Firemist Metallic, a Cadillac color. It took a long tome to get built. The car is only a few days away from other Yenko Novas and most likley was received on the same carrier at Yenko as those cars. When I purchased the car it was black. Two years ago I embarked on a frame off restoration. Most of the original paint had been removed from the car during its black paint job from years ago. But small areas of original colors were found. We had also heard the car may have been a Buick color at one time before the teardown. We had color samples from all the GM lines from 67 through 69 and the color was without doubt Cadillac. No Buick color was even close or other GM color for that matter. It was also Jim Mattison that told me that he helped Emeret? Chevrolet special order a few high option COPO Camaros that were Caddy colors when I talked to him years ago at a Camaro meet. It would seem possible to me that with Yenko's pull with the COPO system, a special color would seem easy. This car never had Yenko stripes from new, and I added the stinger style hood about 5 years ago. I have both hoods..BKH

Hey, I already used that word. Find something else to describe it! Maybe something like.......orgasmic!

How about neato, super, terrific, groovy, or one of the words used back when those cars were made. (before my time)

I am sure the Nova will be amazing in it's orig config, but the way it is now has to be the most sinister looking Nova that I have ever seen!
