So if there is another Yenko from EB Smith that is before July of 68 then there must have been more than one car from there.

Thanks Pete and Darrell,

Yes, I was fishing for either an ad for 8063 or another one from E. B. Smith. Most dealers ordered more than one! Thanks for looking Pete.

I used to work on exotic imports 2 blocks from Penn State on College Ave. Gemini Enterprises TAMR. Owners has a 67 Barracuda fastback drag car sits out front in the showroom. I git to work on the muscle cars. One professor had an unrest ore 70 AAR Cuda he bought as a leftover, plum crazy, column shift.

What was Yenko's fix when converting 4-spd car to auto as far as the tunnel goes?

sorry about the last post, new to this site, was replying to the fact that my new 68 yenko came with a 850 holley, I relpaced it with a holley 3 barrel 1050cfm , when I modified the motor........and what carbs do most people think they came with?Also someone talked about ys 8012 does anyone know the selling dealer? thanks ys 8016........

Bryan........ Sad but true when I modified the yenko motor, 8016, I sold that carb for a few $$. the car was only a few months old, but the need for more speed was strong . Put the exhaust manifolds and smog parts. distrib, camshaft, and more in the trash. there was no market then for those parts. I am living now in the Dominican Republic, carribean, I have a box of car stuff back in Minnesota. Next time home I will bring it down here. yes I have many photos of 8016 when new, not sure if they show the trim tag...but I have a whole folder of photos of the restoration that do show it. If I remember right The man that did the restoration lived in ND, name Schmidt. I also have some paper work on the car when new, I offered it to a Mike Guarise, who was the owner then, but he declined?? that is How I found my old car,It was feature car dec, 2004...on this website Amazing that 4 or 5 of those original 6 kline yenkos have been found, a few with questionable colors ,Should be home in about 2 months with all the info...........thanks ys 8016

Thanks 8016! That is great that you still have the photo's and original documents. I look forward to seeing some of these items. These such items are what we learn by, and to do the proper research on these cars is very difficult without someone like you that still has these items, and willing to share the history of these cars.

Thanks,
Bryan

Great to see you back Bob and thank you for sharing your original owner info!
Thanks too Bryan for keeping track of these 68's also you're right on w/ your comments above.
Here's a Feb/69 Kline ad below w/ two '68 Yenkos left, when exactly did you take delivery of your car Bob?

Here's more Kline Yenko ads from what looks like may be the beginning in Jun/67.
Not sure when the '68 cars landed...end of Aug '67 ad w/ 10 Yenkos in stock would be too early?
Bob's spot on w/ 6 x 68's there @ the end of '67 but looks like his car the only one sold 'till Nov?
5 x 68's @ Nov 3/68 but one gone by the 7'th, two more sold or dealer traded by Dec 23/68.
Understandable if they didn't order 69's from Yenko, anyone know if they delivered any non-Yenko '69 L72's?
Note the used '67 Yenko Mar/68 ad, last thing they probably wanted as a trade in then?
