Default Re: 2010 Yenko/SC Camaro

Because we have already received requests for matching cars/numbers, current owners of the Yenko cars will have first option and priority to order one of the numbered cars which pertain and/or commemorate one which had actually been built prior. Of course, as always, club members will receive top priority.

So Tom, what you are saying is you can have one built ANY way you like it?? Not that I can afford one by any means, but dreams are still free right, how about a 2 tone?

Bruce..that is something we would love to do, and have discussed, but we will need to work out a few details first. We think we can get a car completed (including 427 engine) by then, but then getting it there and back, and the biggee..booth space.

Tom, thanks for the response to my post. Unfortunately I feel the questions that I asked are not being answered. Is GM backing this project? If they are that is great news, however the questions still stands: Does GM have permission to use the Yenko name? But if GM is not backing your project and in the future GM decides to licensed the name Yenko and then build a Yenko Camaro......which Yenko would be considered "real", yours or GM's?

I believe GM is not involved in converting these cars in any way. Yenko originally used the COPO process for 68, 69 and 70, and it is my understanding that is not the case with the 2010's. GM isn't even building the Z28, I doubt they would have any interest in a Yenko labeled car(they didn't originally).

Classic industries sells the Yenko stripe kit (they own the license)and you can install it on a Yugo if you want. I believe you may be over thinking this....

paceme....inregards to your comment concerning Classic sells the stripe kit and you can put it on a Hugo, you are correct. However you cannot under the trademark stripe the car for business/commercial sale or transaction. Selling a stripe verses sell "cars" is entirly different. Someone needs to check there facts further. I have been through this. I would check this before you get a SEMA booth, there is a 50% non refundable deposit. Everyone is going to hate me for making this statement......I have also seen cars ceased at the conclusion of the show for various infactions. It is done very quitely, but it is done. Freindly advice to those involved have your ducks in a row before you attempt anything. Hey, but what do I know, everytime I am on this site I am wrong about something! As others say...just my 2 cents.

GM never backed Fred Gibb back in 1968. The Gibb Novas didn't have crap for warrenty. I fail to understand what is your question?? Yenko wasn't backed by GM with the 67 & 68 transplants.

Fred & Don requested items that were not a RPO for the car to be installed, and GM agreed and used the COPO process to get it done.
One slight correction, most 68 Yenko's had the 9737 COPO installed(Sports car conversion). Oh and lets not forget the Corvair Stingers...

Tom, here's the link. I know that they still have space available for vendors...as we inquired not too long ago.

I will be at SEMA for the duration this year...as they offer some great classes for marketing folks...both at the show and online before the show!
