Heard about it years back.....

So would the 69 COPO L72 427 be the baddest Elco, or the 70 LS6 454 be??? For 1/4 mile stuff!

The F'book '69 Camino looks to be FG w/ Yenko stripe kit as screenshot pics below.
'69 Camino L89's were indeed built also possibly Copo 9511 factory 456/488 rear axle cars but I'm not a believer in this example being a factory L72 '69 Camino or any others w/o substantial facts presented, someone please lay them out if any truths to be had.

I still have the L89 ElCamino.

Igosplut 02-04-2020 01:44 AM

69 or 70? I don't remember.

So, were there actually Yenko 427 el Caminos built? Couldn't follow that on this thread. If so, wow, what a cool car that would be. The FG one above is sharp, and the stripe kit looks great on it, real or not.

Charley, that L89 el Camino sounds really cool. I must have missed it before, sounds really neat.

I'm not going to say someone didn't roll into Yenko and ask for a 427 to be dropped in his ElCo, that is a high possibility during that era, so who knows. But a COPO 427 El Camino with stripes applied by a teenage Lynn Yenko like the other Camaros and Chevelles? I will give that a hard NO and wait to be proven wrong.

I have not seen any 1969 427 Yenko ElCaminos

suppose its possible if there was a costumer order for one but would need good baby pictures or paper to prove out

that green one looks like it has a lot of 1968 parts on it like ft bumper , fender and side trim ,
fender emblem
