Default Where is it now.

Amazing find!! The information and photos shared on FB was great. It was immediately up for sale. Did anyone here buy it? Sounds like it needs a total restoration but will be cool looking Yenko when completed.
Cheers,
Marty

here is a interior photo of YS-748 from Jerry's FB page and a photo of another 67 Yenko that is restored with the SW Tach in the location seen on many 67 Yenkos. The YS-748 photo looks to have something under the ign key

Looks like 15x6 C2 crows on the front. I'm not sure when the 15x7s came out, but they were designed for the 67-68 camaros to clear the front discs.

A '67 in butternut is just sooooooo clean!

The 15X6 wheels were probably DF wheels used on 67 & 68 Z/28's which had front disc brakes. The 67 Corvette "C2" 15X6 DC wheels had a different offset than the Camaro DF 15X6 wheel.
Agree on color but I'm partial to Butternut Yellow LOL. Great Find.....

some Yenko paper work shows G70x15 tires and Rally wheels on some 67 Yenko Camaros
I think those were an SS Impala tire option
