P.S. the blue RS ZL1 was owned by Joe and Paul Seivers(sp?) at that time and yes it was just before Ottis Chandler bought the car.

That's the #7 ZL1 N608613 raced out of Dale Chevrolet as 'L'il Brother Hugger.&quot; I found both car and engine in the '80s but couldn't put them together and passed it along to Jim. Very well done car.

#122. This 69 Yenko Camaro was on display at The Mecum Auction in Indianapolis and will be auctioned at their Seattle auction. It is N579518 and was sold new at Joseph Chevrolet in Cincinnati OH. It has it's original drivetrain and has 20K miles. This is one of the first Yenkos I ever saw in person when it was at the Super Chevy Sunday at Indianapolis in 1982. Jerry Buczkowski's LeMans Blue 69 Yenko Camaro was also there that year. Coincidentally that car was just featured in Muscle Car Review with 2 other Yenkos. This Hugger Orange Camaro was featured in the December 1982 issue of Super Chevy. It was also featured in Chevy Rumble several years ago when Irwin Krois owned it. At that time it had white stripes.

#125. This 69 Chevelle COPO is B397120 and has been talked about on here before. There was a 3 ring binder full of information and pictures of this one also. I believe the same person had both of these Chevelles restored and I believe the same person bought both of them at the auction. There was also GM of Canada documentation with this car. I believe it was sold new at B &amp; A in Toronto ON. There were pictures of the hidden VINs on the firewall and all the drivetrain stampings. The write up on this one said the fenders, hood, doors, trunk lid and floors were original GM sheet metal and the full inner and outer quarters were replacement sheet metal. The write up also said the drivetrain was numbers matching, but it did not say it was original to the car. It is a good looking car and sold for $150K.

I was at the Goodguys show in Columbus OH this past weekend and there were several supercars in attendance. I've posted photos of the Rupp's 69 Yenko Chevelle before when it was at MCACN in 2013. Here is a better photo of it outside in the sun. I talked to Mark for a while and he gave me a nice poster of the car. I need to get it framed so I can hang it in my office. This car was sold new at Hugh White in Columbus OH.

#126. This well known 69 Yenko Nova was sold out of V.V. Cooke Chevrolet in Louisville KY. Randy Miller had this car restored in the mid 90's and at that time it was featured in the October 1996 issue of Muscle Car Review. Kevin Hand owned it for awhile and it eventually ended up in David Nicholl's collection before it was seized by the feds and sold at a government auction. It is currently in the Dennis Albaugh collection. It was at the Goodguys Columbus show this past weekend where it was the Hemmings Muscle Car of the Year finalist. I talked with one of the guys who brought it to the show and he said they are working on correcting some of the incorrect things with the car. He also said they received very little documentation with the car and are looking to contact some of the previous owners to see if they can get some more documentation and information on the car. A question that came up during our conversation was how many of the known 69 Yenko Novas actually have documentation from Yenko showing they were 427 transplant cars.
