Anybody know what kind of Wheels and caps came stock on the 67's. I've seen some Chevy rally wheels and also Pontiac wheels with a "Y" center cap. Just wondering!!

Any original 67 Yenko pics I have show the cars with either rally wheels or the factory simulated mag wheel hubcaps. I'm sure there were mag wheel options available too. The rally II Pontiac wheels were used in 68.

The disk brake cars had to come with rally wheels from the factory as no other wheel would fit. If the car was ordered from Yenko you probably could have ordered an after market wheel but I am not sure if Yenko was selling Atlas wheels in 67. The original paperwork that I have seen on about 15 67 Yenko Camaros shows the cars with very similar equipment and they were real hot rod/drag cars advertised as AHRA legal (not NHRA). They came with headers, scatter shield, traction bars, Tach and gauges. Many cars were pre-ordered and pre built so if the car went into the Yenko network it probably had factory wheels. I have been researching the 67 Yenkos and did turn up some new info but it is difficult to find.

I think almost all were L-72 blocks. I did find out the Camaros were called Stompers, the Z28 was a Stormer and the obvious Stinger. I was also able to find a window sticker and some other ads if anybody is interested.
