Yenko Hub Cap stickers
 
Anybody know where you can buy the Yenko stickers for the center Hub Caps for American Torque Thrust wheels. BTW were Yenk camaros standard with 14 or 15" wheels.

Brian Henderson has the correct white ones. Contact him at Supercar Workshop 724-532-1975. If you're talking about 69 sYc Camaros, they used 15x6 5 spoke Atlas wheels.

Thanks Joe, yes I am talking about a 69 sYc Camaro. Where can you get these wheels? Does Supercar workshop have a website?
BTW are you from Minnesota, I knew a Joe Barr their.

No website, but give Brian a call, he's a wealth of info. Atlas wheels were actually a cheaper knock off of an American Racing Torq-Thrust of the same era. Torq Thrusts are still produced but are not identical to 60's originals. There were many other manufacturers that made similar 5 spoke mags... Ebay or swap meets have always been where I have had the best luck. Look for wheels with straight, peaked spokes for the most authentic look.

btw, I've lived in Western PA all my life.

I found this one at the tire rack. It is the torque thrust originals. Let me know if this is correct or close?
Thanks

I bought a set from Brian several years ago. I put them on the plastic hubs, that have a thin ridge around the lip. The decals were "slightly" larger than the recessed area inside the lip, so I trimmed probably 1/64-1/32" off the decals so they would fit in the recess. I also took the time to remove the A/R decal first, although I know Mr. Yenko would never have done that!! They turned out great.

Closest you will find in a brand new wheel.
They look good, replace the allen headed screws that hold the center cap to the wheel with a set of flat blade machine screws and you will be all set.
