What determined the color stripe when on same color paint? I noticed the two garnet red cars have two different colored stripes.

Honestly, i don't know if it was anything more than having a mix of assorted combos available. I've never seen anything in writing where a specific color stripe was ordered. Could have just been a matter of whatever color stripe kits were on the shelf at the time of conversion.

Yenko would do just about anything the paying customer wanted. e.g. 1, most Fathom Green Yenko Camaro's had white stripes, but one or two had black stripes...very stealth! I saw one with black stripes at Reunion # 1 and patterned my tribute off it. BTW my car started as a sb auto with AC, and I put it back with AC. Had to fab up one of the brackets, because, IIRC, the 840 heads did not have the boss to attach to.

e.g. 2, Yenko had a local shop install a vinyl top on a Yenko Camaro, because that's what the customer wanted. The vinyl extended to the drip rail, unlike factory vinyl tops.

If you bought a car from Yenko Chevrolet, you had more options then if the car was sold by a another Chevy Dealer in the Yenko Dealer network.

There were a few cars sold directly by Yenko Chevy that had more modifications then the average car

Well, it’s one or the other....I last saw Frank and his Yenko Chevelle nearly 20 years ago, it’s how I remember our conversation.
What ever the case.....it is one very cool Yenko Chevelle with A/C
