The Camaros were always Super Camaros, based on what I have seen. In 1969 when the line up was increased to Chevelles and Novas then as a group they have been referred to as Yenko Super Cars. I have never seen the 427 Camaros identified by Don as a Yenko Super Car, although they indeed were all Super Cars. |

I actually thought that it always stood for Yenko Sports Cars. Seems like all the letterheads, invoices, and correspondence from Yenko Chevrolet used that wording. When they began building Camaros in 1967, it was a coincidence that "YSC" still worked for Yenko Super Camaro. Along came the Yenko Nova in 1969, and the name "Yenko Super Cars" worked just as well.
But I thought "YSC" stood for Yenko Sports Cars, and there were various twists on that acronym.
