the history of the 1967 Yenkos is a bit confusing because it changed a lot in the time period when the cars were built and sold from Nov. 1966 (Stompers) to March of 1968 (YS-760)

The 107 list is not a list of 1967 Yenko 427 Camaros

YS-737 is included on the list of about 60 vins for 1967 Yenkos

I have not seen the documentation on YS-737
not sure if they contacted Vince about the car.
He may be the only one with paperwork on it .

Pete, thanks for posting the article and ads

The July 16 1967 article states that Dick Harrell will have a new shop at St. Louis International raceway. This did not happen. Harrell had a small shop in St. Louis not far from a rail yard and not far from Barford Chev.
Yenko drop shipped Camaros to the rail yard where they were stored waiting for Harrell 427 conversions.

Some cars were stored at Barford Chev and they sold some of the cars

Barford Chev was a Corvette racer like Don
Barford raced one of the Grand Sport Corvettes
