Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Yenko tribute has the look, the
sound, and the big block V8 heart of intimidation. Best of all, you
can get the power and fierceness for a price that's untouchable for
an original Yenko.
The '69 Chevelle is already a great classic. The styling of the
coupe has a cool fastback-like hardtop profile and a hint of flying
buttress. So it's already in-demand before you see the Yenko-style
upgrades. Red is always a good choice for a muscle machine. It's a
true muscle car finish that has a good look in the sunshine, and
some aged-in details from blacktop battles. Plus, the brightness of
the red is a great backdrop to highlight the black Yenko S/C stripe
package that pays tribute to the best performance dealer Chevrolet
ever had. And you'll even love the details, like how the polished
Boss Motorsports wheels complement the shine of the chrome bumpers.
At the same time, their 18/20-inch front/rear stagger also gives
this Yenko tribute and an even more intimidating stance.
The black accents of the exterior are a nice preview for the full
midnight treatment of the interior. Yenkos cars are supposed to be
clean and basic (lightweight for speed) and this one understands
that quite well. You can choose to add back the radio or the air
conditioning (the controls are there but the heavy components are
not.) But right now, it has the right Yenko feel. Your largest
upgrades are what makes this a better driver's machine, like the
front bucket seats, a center console with floor shifter, and a
wood-rimmed sports steering wheel.
A Yenko car is all about big power, and so you have a nice big
block under the hood. Chevy's famous 396 cubic-inch V8 looks good
with bright valve covers, matching air topper, and the bold block
looking like it's radiating power from within the dark inner walls.
The Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor means it inhales deeply, and
the headers add power and rumble to the dual exhaust. The TH400
three-speed automatic transmission is a stout unit that's good for
delivering the big block power to the strong 10-bolt rear end.
Plus, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the grip of
modern ZR-rated tires give this confidence on the road.
Power and poise deliver a terrific Yenko tribute. So if you love a
standout Chevelle, call today!
