Beautifully executed Camaro Yenko SC427 fitted with a performance
built 454ci V8, TH400 automatic, center console, power steering,
power disc brakes, cowl induction hood, 15" American Racing
TorqueThrust wheels, Deluxe trim, and more!� Great Daytona Yellow
color and super solid body characteristics!� A real show & go
example! The Camaro was Chevrolets answer the ever growing
popularity of the Ford Mustang. Being introduced just two year
after the Ford pony car, Chevy wanted to impress buyers with more
aggressive body lines, multiple trim options, along with both big &
small block engine options. It instantly made a dent in Ford sales
each and every year, and a new generation of the Ford/ Chevrolet
rivalry had begun! The final year of this first generation Camaro
came about in 1969 and continues to be the most desirable today!
One Chevrolet dealer based in Canonsburg, PA got an early start on
performance enhancements on his Chevrolet lineup to further
separate himself from the competition. This meant working directly
with Chevrolet on Central Office Production Order (COPO) units that
were factory fitted with Corvette power plants, and basic Super
Sport equipment like the 12-bolt axle, power disc brakes, and big
block suspension! He would order and build just 201 Camaro Yenko
SC427 Sport Coupes in 1969 making them one of the rarest of muscle
cars to ever appear on the market. With crazy price tags to match
their limited availability, most Camaro enthusiasts and collectors
will settle for a tribute example replicating an original. We are
extremely lucky to offer this beautifully restored 1969 Chevrolet
Camaro Sport Coupe Yenko SC427 tribute! Finished in striking
Daytona Yellow and Black vinyl bucket seat interior (711), it comes
well equipped with factory options! Powered by a fully rebuilt,
later generation 454ci V8 and Turbo-Hydraulic 400 automatic 3-speed
transmission it features�power front disc brakes, power steering,
Yenko hood & side stripes, Yenko 427 badging, cowl induction hood,
chrome engine dress up kit, 15" American Racing Torque Thrust wheel
wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires measuring 215/65R15 up
front & 255/60R15 at the rear, body sill moldings, wheel lip
moldings, roof rail drip moldings, quarter trim moldings, & blacked
out tail panel, front & rear spoilers, Deluxe steering wheel, AM
pushbutton radio with dual rear seat speakers, true dual exhaust
system, and more! A close look at this magnificent Camaro will show
super slick paint, very sharp interior upholstery with proper YSC
headrests & padded carpet, wood grained deluxe dash, center
console, fresh weather stripping throughout, fresh braking system
with brand new master cylinder, new BF Goodrich T/A Radial tires,
rebuilt suspension with new upper/lower ball joints, control arm
bushings, sway bar links, tie rod ends, shocks; newer exhaust with
Dynamax mufflers, original LOF side & rear window glass, and so
much more!� The engine was professionally rebuilt by Luke's Central
Machine in Mason City, IA to include .030 bore to the block, new
pistons & rings, polished crankshaft, street performance camshaft,
new valve guides & seals, all gaskets, and rebuilt heads with
stainless steel 1.88 exhaust/ 2.19 intake valves. Atop the engine
rests a Weiand Stealth aluminum intake with Holley Street Avenger
carburetor, Hedman long tube headers, all new ignition system,
fresh belts, new hoses & clamps, filters & fluids! It truly sounds
as good as it looks, considering the restoration was completed in
approximately July 2004. This example left factory as a 350ci V8
with automatic according to the included Protect-O-Plate, and sold
new to Dorothy Andrews of Bridgeport, IL. It must have been garage
kept most of its life, and remains a very solid investment today!��
It runs down the road just as you would expect, with stellar
performance in every respect! It will come complete with original
owner's manual, spare tire with cover, tool, some recent service
records including the engine overhaul, storage car cover, two sets
of keys, and rubber floor mats. Please feel free to call with
additional questions, or to schedule an opportunity to see it in
person! Thanks for looking!
