Well said Frank! As a sidenote, the wheels were not "GM" wheels, and were bought after the fact by Yenko to replace the XT coded steel wheels and "dog dish" hubcaps the cars were delivered from GM with. The center caps had "Magnum 500" in the centers, and Yenko placed the "Y" decal directly over the top without removing the original insert. If you look closely, you can still see the original emblem underneath the Y decals. Oddly enough, the wheels DID have the same AO code as GM factory installed SS wheels from 70. The paint finish is the same, as is the offset. No trim ring was used. The spare tire remained the factory installed XT wheel painted body color.
