Default 67 yenko

Has any info surfaced that will help assign a ys number to 67 Yenko VIN 242876? It is listed as being shipped to St Louis On the "Chevrolet order status listing" as well as other paperwork. We are restoring it at this time. Deepwater Blue auto with vinyl top, fold down seat , power windows and bright blue deluxe interior. Did the later 67 Yenko Camaros have a ys tag in the door? This one has holes where the tag may have been.

In the thread you said "auto". Do you mean automatic transmission?

Here is another Deepwater Blue Yenko Camaro Automatic. David Lapisa knew he had something special, just didn't know what exactly. He contacted us as he thought it might be a NicKey Camaro..........we gave him the bad news that it wasn't a NicKey......then the good News that it was a Yenko 427...........

I have not seen a 1967 Yenko Camaro with a ys tag in the door

the tag was used in 1968 when Yenko was trying to get NHRA certification for a 427 Camaro

does the hole to hole dimension match those of a 68 ys tag?

I get an accurate measurement and post a picture when we get the car back from the top Shop. Car was built June 28th. By the time it would have been shipped to St.Louis and converted it could have been well into the later part of July. Thought I had heard that maybe there were some late 67 that got ys tags. Wasn't Don submitting Vin list to NHRA in 1967?

I just might have vintage a vintage photo of this car but it's gonna take some serious digging around here to unearth it!
