Default Original Paint Yenko Chevelle

Wonder what the reserve is on this one? Gorgeous car. Hard to believe that paint is original.

Maybe the same car George Lyons owned? By memory that Monaco Orange COPO/Yenko had a mechanical restoration no paint.

RE George Lyon's car - IIRC George said the hood had been repainted or the Hood was not original, I do not remember exactly what he told me... may have had a different hood with a scoop on it when he bought it.

This beauty was delivered right &quot;down the street&quot; from me at Marv Minneman Chevrolet (a real hi-po Chevy dealer)!

Yes, it is the same Yenko Chevelle George sold at Mecum Indy back when the Dave C collection was sold. John bought the car then and has had it ever since.

Very Kool Yenko Chevelle.

Curious of all the known orange Yenko chevelle's. They all appear to be auto. Have there been any four speeds found.
