Default Re: '69 Yenko Novas - SS?

It was common practice to take emblems off with a stiff, sharp putty knife. You didn't take a nova fender off to remove the nova emblem. You knocked it off with a stiff putty knife, redrilled the holes, inserted some barrel nuts, and poped on the emblem. I agree, they knocked off the SS with a stiff putty knife.

I think that Dana Hurt said that the posts were in the fender of his 68 Yenko.

My Fathom Green Camaro #3 was shipped to Marv Minneman Chevrolet without stripes. Could this be the car on the bottom or is there something that says they all got stripes? I was told this by Vince Emme when I bought the car in '85 and they sent it back to Yenko to have stripes added later. Of course I talked to the original owner of my car and he had photos of the day he brought the car home taking off the stripes? Go figure!

Knew that had to be a early pic, all the camaros look to be X66 cars, so how early in the year did they start converting Novas? Awesome pic.
