Nope - while it was under Shalla Chevrolet, it was also driven by Bill Passion

Which car? All I have scanned in of our '67 is on my webpage. I have a bunch of what it looked like when we 'found' it at the Detroit Autorama back in the late 80's but I haven't posted them.

I don't have any images of the 'Killer' Camaro

Got me, I was 3 years old

I have never really discussed the Killer car with dad. We are working on the '67 truck chassis today, I'll bring it up

Regarding the hydraulic-cammed 410-horse/Th-400 version:

Was it a 390-horse oval-port engine that was modified to obtain the 410-horse rating?

Did Yenko modify the trans/converter?

Do any of the 410-horse cars survive?

Fred did sell a 67 Yenko a red one. I use to watch it drive around Burlington on the street. It said THE MAD MONK in gold leave on the doors. Kim

Please note the above post THE CAR HAS BEEN FOUND. It's well and in AZ. It has 6200 miles on it. Some of the org. paint is still on it!! I have been tracing it for 5 years. The car is the holly grail of Yenkos a 67 Yenko ,427 transplanted by Dick Harrell and sold thru Fred Gibb Chev. Can't get any better.
