Vehicle Description
Extremely bad to the bone Camaro. Take a 1st Generation Camaro add
a Big Block, Not just a Big Block but a 427ci Monster Bruiser .
Give a 4-Spd Muncie and have it in Blue with all the correct badges
and Vinyl to give it that 'Born to Run' Look... You got something
special. Beautiful Car! Sounds Great at idle or jammin' down the
road. It has had a couple creature comforts added to it the past
few years that most of us will definitely appreciate. Power
Steering AND Power Brakes! Very honest build with plenty of curb
appeal and horsepower to spare. As good on top sides as is on
undersides. Priced right and sure to please. Call us for details,
we sell and ship worldwide When the Camaro debuted, a General
Motors corporate edict prevented it from carrying an engine larger
than 400 in� (6.6 L) V8. This put the Camaro at a disadvantage to
the Ford Mustang, Plymouth Barracuda and the Dodge Dart since
neither Ford nor Plymouth/Dodge had such a limit (although Ford
only had a 390 Mustang in 1967). Don Yenko and others knew there
was a market for a more powerful Camaro and found ways around the
GM limit. For 1969, the dealership worked with Chevrolet to have
the L72 engines installed on the factory assembly line using a
Central Office Production Order, or COPO. The orders included power
disc brakes, spoilers, cowl-induction hood, a 4.10 Positraction
rear end with gears that were heat treated for strength, a bigger
front sway bar, and a heavy-duty 4-core radiator. Buyers of the car
had the option of either the M-21 four speed or the Turbo
Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission. A total of 201 cars were
sold in 1969, 171 with four speed transmissions and 30 with
automatic transmissions. Yenko rounded out the visual package with
special "Yenko 427" badges, stripes down the sides and hood, and
the sYc (Yenko Super Car) on the headrests. According to the Camaro
Research Group, standard black interior (code 711) was the only
interior ordered by Yenko in 69. On dispay now in our showroom
