Yes, I am arranging 6 cars to be transported to the show from guys here in Phoenix.  I will be bringing 2 of my own cars, the RG car above and a freshly restored real 69 Yenko Camaro - hugger orange with black vinyl top and TT wheels.  It has the orig - born with motor. 

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

No offense taken on any of the post - looking to have great time at the show and seeing some new cars and meeting some great people.

Matt is putting together quite a show. I spoke to him this morning and he has landed quite a few nice Camaros, including two original Cross Ram Z28's. He must be one exhausted individual...he just finished with the SuperNationals in January...see you up there.

I don't think it is correct to say this is "1 of 6 " unconverted Yenko 1968 COPO 9737 Camaros.

There is a Yenko ad that shows 6 of them for sale but that does not mean there was only 6 sold as special hi po SS396 Camaros.

The Yenko ad was run late in the year. They were probably more then 6 sold  during the year based on the other known Yenko info

Joe, do you have the proposed Yenko ad?  I'd like to see that and have a copy of that for my records please.  Tom Billigan mentioned this to me but was not able to provide a copy due to a very fuzzy copy that he had. 

If there is a better number to use, or a better reference I would be happy to use that or qualify it that way as well.

Appreciate your help with the ad.

Very, Very Nice

I you can do you know which vendor or brand hood you choose to use?

I have been concidering the same hood swap for my 68, it seems just like wheels,,, a set of choices just is as fun as my wife wanting 100+ pair of shoes & hairdo's. Well you know what I mean

Thanks
