Plus, as Joe pointed out, the cool 68 only "67 Shelby" style hood, 68 only Pontiac Rally II wheels, and the lowest production numbers of all 3 years with 64 cars built.

Not to pick nits, but 67 was actually the lowest production year for the Yenko Camaro.

Joe,ummm, 107 +/- '67's and 64 +/- '68's...you teachers and your new math You must be of the "less is more" school of thought?

As far as converted vs. non-converted 68's? I think the few non-converted cars are very cool and no doubt extremely rare. But for me, the whole reason to own a Supercar is to have that special part that makes it "Super" and in the case of Yenko Camaros it is the 427 engine.

I have to go now, because I think Ed Montini will be burning a cross in my yard soon LOL. Don't take it personally, Ed, I like non-converted cars a ton- just happen to like my 31 extra cubic inches and the fact that Yenko's guys spun wrenches on my car to put it in and make it a Yenko Super Camaro as opposed to a COPO L78 car.

I have my fire extinguisher ready for all the flaming I am about to get

Heck, I'm just the art teacher... Counting isn't even in my job description. I DO teach the "less is more" theory though... especially when dealing with Elmer's Glue and 5 year olds.

[Chevy454]

Yeah, but...the '69s are faster!

Coling...I appreciate your viewpoint...now you got me rethinking the entire situation...you're pretty good writer, you should write a book

quote "For example, I had to buy 3 NOS SW 990 tach senders just to get one dated 3/68..."quote

Do you have any of those extra SW tach senders laying around that you won't use?...I'm looking at picking one up sometime. I can just picture you buying a bunch of these and opening them up to see what's inside just like the kids in Charley and the Chocolate Factory looking for the golden ticket.

There may be less 67s then 68s
Vince E. said 54 67s and 64 68s
I don't think his list has the Yenko Stompers but not many of them were built.

Joe may be correct if you figure it out like this?.

Even though the Yenko paperwork clearly shows 107 VINs, 1967 Yenko Camaros IMO, when it comes to such cars, the number built is not as important as the number of documented cars that exist today. Such as '69 Yenko Novas, 9 known to exist, how many built/sold 37, 40, ? The problem is some of the lists seem to contain both converted and unconverted cars, and of course factor in documented cars that are not on the list, then the number built/sold is really subject to debate. On the other hand, it is easier to get close to the number of documented cars known to exist. Of course Don did not help matters when questioned about numbers built.

Colin - no cross burning this weekend planned! I just appreciate to be able to be involved in the mix with all of you and the non coverted car. Its fair to recognise they are very rare cars with the proper pedigree etc.

Rest easy this weekend :-))
