Default Re: '69 Original Yenko Nova

Mike;
That is the big question on these cars. Most people that we have spoken with remember their cars as SS cars, black interior, bench seats, dog-cap wheels, AM radios, rubber mats, and only 4 speeds.

However, 'Supercars' has a Garnet Red car that did not have any SS indicators found on it when it was being restored. It is really not known for sure how Yenko picked out which cars got converted in '69. There is one that is rumored to have been left an L78, but got a Corvette Tri-Power added to it!! Yenko also is quoted as saying that they 'got the emblems, but no stripes', these photos contradict that as well.
