Will;
To my knowledge 1967 and 1981 were the only years for a black Yenko car, and only on Camaros. The '67's didn't have any stripes, so that makes 1981 the only year for a black Yenko car with white stripes.

If you are inquiring because you ran across a black Yenko Deuce with white stripes in Maryland, steer clear, it's just a nice '71 Nova with some stripes thrown on. Some people might call it a clone, but it's not, a clone would at the very least be a '70!!

That's a decent stroll on your second pass, 13.2 @ 105 is pretty good!

Will,

Yes, there were two Black 1969 Camaros sold as Yenkos to the Public. They were sold by Jack Douglass Chevrolet in Hinsdale, Illinois and one was used by Tom Dumass, then General Manager as his Dealer Demonstrator.

Tom Remembers changing Jack's existing orders since no black cars were included and he usually drove a Back demo at the time.
