Finally we have proof of the Yenko finned aluminum valve covers existance. Check out the engine compartment pics dated 1/97.

Is this Chevelle a legit car?

Re: 1969 AUTHENTIC YENKO 427 CHEVELLE
 

I think this story is BS. The date on the camera looks like it was done with PSP or Photoshop, the periods are too square and pixilated. Additionally it looks like it has a SUN Super Tach II which would not be original for a 69 car sold new. I think the VC were added, maybe when the motor was freshened up. It may be a real Yenko, but not everything here is as it was when sold new.

I think the 1/1/97 is the default date on the camera. Where would you see trees in full green in January, in the northern hemisphere [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sixties,
How many more sets of those do you have?

Re: 1969 AUTHENTIC YENKO 427 CHEVELLE
 

It looks to be Jerry Janota's old car, Nankivell Chev. sold it new, optioned as a/t, am, v/t, r/a, bus, & p/s. Car must have been recently repainted, I thought it was red for many years.

Marlin,
Are you sure it came from Nankivell? Ed C doesn't show any Chevelles sold there. By the way, have you found anything on the Nankivell, dk green, auto Deuce I told you about?

...Has anyone looked closely at the shifter?
....Is it "straight"....or "curved"
....I believe the "curved" is correct....but I could be wrong???? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
