2010 Yenko/SC Camaro
 

I am proud to announce that the Yenko Sportscar Club, along with the Super Car Workshop/Arone and Nickey-Chicago, have joined forces to produce 5th generation Camaros, honoring the legacy of Don Yenko and Yenko Chevrolet. They will be known as Yenko/SC Camaros, with the first ones based on the 2010 Camaro.

Though there are a few details yet to be worked out, there is a pilot car at the shop now being converted, with a Hugger Orange Yenko/SC 427 Camaro up next, scheduled to be painted by the SCW.

Hopefully pictures of the pilot car will be available soon.

Look for announcements on this site as more details become available.

Sounds like an excellent project Tom!

This should be very interesting...can't wait to see the pilot car pics.

Very cool! Can't wait to see it! It's a shame that most on this board seem to hate the new body style. I love it, but can't even afford a base 2010 SS at this time.

We gave some thought to limiting the number built, but we wanted to do this project a little different, more in tune with what Don would have done. Thus we are not limiting the number of units built.

Don was about numbers, and building what the customer wanted. As was the case the first time around, when customers would set down with Don and tell him what they wanted, we want customers to do the same, from mild to wild. Want a 2010 Camaro to match a your Teal Island Blue ’68 Yenko, or one in Royal Plum, the guys at the SCW can do it. Want a 2010 Yenko/SC Turbo Z, no problem. How about a Yellow 2010 Yenko/SC 427 auto to match your ’69, can do. Hum...https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: 2010 Yenko/SC Camaro
 

In the past the Yenko site has be-grudged Jim Barber for creating the 1969 Yenko Continuation Cars and yet this 2010 Yenko Camaro project is welcomed. Some of the comments from previous threads have been, “It’s only a Yenko if built by Don Yenko or at Yenko Chevrolet" So why is this project any different? Is this project being backed by GM? Has the Yenko name been licensed by the builders? Do you have permission to use the Yenko name? I also know that in the past the argument has been that the 1969 Yenko Continuation Cars body parts were stamped in Taiwan and this somehow was frowned upon. Does that mean that if Jim Barber went out and found a GM 1969 Camaro body and called it a Yenko that now the 1969 Yenko Continuation Car would receive the same warm response as the new 2010 Yenko? By the way Jim Barber did have permission to use the Yenko name. It seems to me it’s only a good idea to use the Yenko name if the idea stems from this site or if you are high ranking member of this site. Just my opinion!

It's all about reviving our past. Happier times when things were less complicated.

Best Wishes to ALL those involved! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

This is great news.

First the Nickey Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 cars, then the Gibb specials and now, a Yenko. Can it get any better?

Congrats to all of the folks involved in making this happen, it couldn't be a better or more dedicated group, who fully understand the impact that Don Yenko made on our hobby.
