There are some pictures of the holding lot at Yenko showing some X11 cars waiting for their stripes. I have also seen a number of X11 cars in person and have no reason to believe their tags were reproductions. I agree that the part about the X11 tag not being legit should not be in the report. The decked and restamped block and questionable firewall are bigger issues though.

The Yenko Chevelle doesn't appear to have any issues although I was under the impression it still had it's original transmission which it apparently doesn't.

The report on the Nova seems to imply that the CE block in the car is the one that was installed by Yenko in 69. Does anybody know if that is true? I didn't think that car had the original Yenko installed block in it.

Charley, the Yenko Chevelle and Nova would look good in the Brothers Collection.

When I owned this Chevelle the transmission and interior were original to the car.

Can someone post the reports here, I had a quick look on the website but didn't see the reports?

I'm sorry to see a statement so incorrect about Yenko trim tags made by someone people rely on. There are plenty of X11 trim tags on Yenko Camaros. The uneducated statement presented as fact probably hurt the sales price of that car. There right thing to do would be a retraction and correction.
As for the Nova there is no proof it was ever a 427 car that I know of. Yes there are supposed to be old pics of it with Yenko decals but how do we know Yenko didn't just add stripes to make it more sale able and never put the 427 in ? There was already one certified 427 Yenko Nova that was proven on this site by orig. owner family that it left Yenko as a 396.

Charlie if I am not mistaken you have a (the only if I am not mistaken) X11 Daytona Yellow Yenko Camaro?

[Charley Lillard]

I have a orange X11 Yenko.

The Daytona Yellow X11 Yenko Camaro is here in WI. Probably one of the highest optioned of the bunch: C08 D55 M40 N40 VE3 Z21 Z23.
