Looks like that to me, too, Pete.

Lots of T400 Chevelles but few 4 speeds.

I actually had the privilege to listen to this opening day celebration at Yenko. It was recorded and pressed on a old 78 record. Pretty cool hearing from a Lil Don Yenko. Wish I had a recording of that record...Listened to that almost 20yr ago. I think I have pics of the record and player....

On a side note, how many 427 Novas were built? You rarely seem to see any of those.

Re: 1969 Yenko Original Newspaper Ad
 

Another cool one Paul!
Yunker Chev Oconomowoc is on the list here as delivering at least 5 Yenko Camaros...DY N578835 + FG N578860 FG N615352 + LB N615612 + RG N615866 .
Also, William reported buying parts off N579434 in the early 80's after finding it in a scrapyard...he mentioned thinking then that it may've been a Yunkers car but it's listed here as Hult delivered.
Below emblem pic posted here previously by member Tony 'Scuncio'.

Re: 1969 Yenko Original Newspaper Ad
 

Yet another very cool ad, love that 427 Boss of the road tag line!
Bill Sight Chevrolet is on the '68 list delivering at least two Yenko Camaros, N412409 and N413680 but nothing listed here for '69 Camaros or Chevelles.
Keep in mind some known also unknown Vins were delivered by dealers not listed so Sight could have rolled some 69's through their doors or even more 68's.
Keep digging Paul, very cool stuff!

PeteLeathersac 07-30-2015 01:52 PM

Re: 1969 Yenko Original Newspaper Ad
 

Bob Reiter's another dealer w/ nothing on the lists here but could have sold some known/unknown Yenko cars...especially being the '68 ad states Yenko 427 Camaro on display.
Central Chevrolet Hamilton OH is on the '70 list delivering SC Deuce W352754 plus possibly sold other Yenko cars too...the SC car most likely the same one in the ad?
As mentioned previously, other than some of the Jack Douglass cars, the NCRS service results should come back as Yenko and not the final delivering dealer for real Yenko Supercars.

Wish I could turn back the clock on N579434. Think I paid $75 for the BE axle and dash w/140. Body was intact; still had a Yenko badge on it. Not sure it came from Yunker new but was told it was traded in there mid-'70s. By that time it was Lemans Blue and had a small-block. Probably could have bought the entire carcass for a few hundred bucks.

There was supposed to be a Daytona Yellow '69 Yenko Nova in the area back in the day. Would have to had come from Yunker as Dale was not a franchisee at the time.

Like Dale, the Yunker site is long gone.

&quot;...Central Chevrolet Hamilton OH is on the '70 list delivering SC Deuce W352754...&quot;

This is that car, and is the infamous rebody that went through BJ a few years ago.

I too have heard rumors of a Daytona Yellow 69 427 Nova.

I found the FG Deuce in a shed in Williamsport, PA many years ago. I think Scott in PA has/had it last.

J&amp;W Nova owns 3 of the Tamson Deuces.

Neat ad - both of them, I've not seen them before.

Wolf Chevrolet was a victim of the Government Motors deal a few years back. Manley Motors - also of Belvidere, the World's second oldest Ford dealer purchased the Wolf Chevrolet building this spring and is in the process of remodeling it for their new dealership. John Wolf (I believe the founder's grandson) from Wolf Chevrolet now works across the street at his Uncle's dealership, Jack Wolf Cadillac/GMC.

If I remember correctly Wolf also had CR, and CG deuces. That CG one may well be out there too.
