That is a great interview and we are lucky to have it since it was done so close to Don's death. Unfortunately Don didn't have the most precise memory and some of the things Don said don't seem to correspond to the research. From what I can tell, there was some connection with Yenko, Harrell, and Dana on the assembly of the 1967 Camaros and I don't believe the 67s got the Yenko crest so when they went to the selling dealer who knows what the customer was told. (Don states in the interview that the 67 just got the 427 emblems)
I have some evidence that at least one 67 Yenko Camaro was sold as a Nickey Camaro by Burt Chevrolet in CO.
