#111. This Yenko Chevelle was sold new at Marv Minneman in Youngstown OH and is VIN B408293. It is a 26K mile car with mostly original paint and interior. The chassis and engine compartment were restored by G. Lyons when he owned it. It has a CE block and the original CX transmission and KQ rear end. It is documented with it's original build sheet. It was the September 2007 supercar feature on this site. This is 1 of 2 known Hugger Orange Yenko Chevelles and they both have black vinyl tops and stripes, Atlas mags and TH400's.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: mrays</div><div class="ubbcode-body">#109. This Yenko Camaro was sold new at Marshall Chevrolet in Reading PA. This one is N615454 and order NOR219759. It was advertised as having a replacement block, but the original transmission and rearend along with the original Bill of Sale. I believe this car was for sale on the Nickey website at one point as well.

Really?? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] I need to check my notes, if it's the car I'm thinking it is - there is a much deeper story.....

At one point in time I had pictures of the trim tag and some of the original paperwork for that car. I don't have my handwritten notes from when I saw the car since I have since added them to my spread sheet. I may have transposed or miss read a number at some point. I still have the auction add for this car and it was advertised as a Marshall sold car and there was a picture of the paperwork to back that up. It was also advertised as having a restamped block, but the original transmission and rearend. The picture is from Mecum Indy in 2008 and it was advertised as having an older restoration and having been freshened up by Camaro Specialties. Let me know what you find in your notes, or what you don't agree with. I am pretty sure that this car was later brokered by Nickey and there were a bunch of photos on their website of it. This is a 4 speed car and it had the dealer installed headers.

#112. This Yenko Chevelle was sold new by V.V. Cooke in Louisville KY. This is a 4 speed car with bucket seats and no console and is documented with an original build sheet. It was featured in the February 1993 issues of Popular Hot Rodding and Muscle Car Review when it was owned by Randy Miller. It was part of Dave Christenholz's collection and is now in the Brothers Collection.

Original paperwork would be interesting, as I have my doubts that Marshall actually sold the car - I know the inventory sheet says Marshall but I believe that car was sent back to Yenko and was sold into OH. It eventually came back to PA in '98 or '99 via a used car dealer (Rossi Motors?) - essentially as a pro street car that was tubbed, tied, and caged with a 468, a TH400, and a 9&quot; with 4.86's. Car had a Harwood carbon fiber hood, race buckets and was for sale. I passed but a machinist in NY went to Pittsburgh and bought it. He eventually decided it was not what he wanted and he sold it - reportedly to someone in Canada. I lost track of it and never realized that it had reemerged!
