Thanks for the insight guys. I'm really striking out in the photo department though. I have shots of Henderson's, Hand's, Holub's, Reggie's, and one from this site that doesn't list an owner. No detail shots at all. Time for some aspiring author to write a book. Marc

I believe Henderson's car was not a 427 conversion at Yenko. Correct me if I'm wrong guys, but I thought that car was sold as a 396 car and the 427 engine was later swapped in. The original owner cancelled the conversion or couldn't afford it so took delivery of the car as an SS396. So using that car as a template might be incorrect.

Hand sold his car several months ago to DaveC, and Reggie sold his over a year ago to KeithH.

Erik explained it very well, both methods appear to have been used by Yenko. I'll post some as found pics tomorrow of 2 '69 Yenko Novas, but I can't remember if the one has a fender shot or not - but the rear tail panel is quite interesting!
