I wrote this blog article on the 1967 Yenko's and thought I'd share it. Check out the The Yenko that Harrell Built on SYA Blog. (http://showyourauto.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-yenko-that-harrell-built-by-patrick.html)

Keep the Hobby Fun!

Some of your info is not correct.
Yenko built the first Yenko 427 Camaros at his shop using SS350 Camaros before the deal with DH. DH did the SS396 to 427 conversions for the western area dealers and Yenko did the SS396 conversions he sold and the ones sold by east coast dealers.

You stated that only 4 1967 Yenko 427 Camaros have Yenko/Harrell paperwork but there are more then double that.

I stated that only 4 DH Yenko's are known to exist with paperwork. I'd love to learn the details of the others that are out there.

Thanks for the insights Joe. I clarified the territorial divide on the blog. As they say, you learn something new everyday.

Car looks familiar. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif
It used to be resale red. Amazing body on the car, had no rust.
