Default Re: ZL-1 Race cars

Nice picture Terry. Do you know what year it was taken?
I found another picture of a 1969 Camaro Yenko race car. It appears to be the same car as the 1968 # 11 Camaro and #5 Sebring car but was reskined as a 69. The roof stripes appear to be the same and looks like a large Yenko crest on the side but I cannot read the letters. When the Camaros were reskined they just changed the nose clip and quarters leaving the greenhouse and trunk. The # 5 Sebring ZL1 equipped racer appears to be the # 9 Camaro with new paint on the ZL1. Both have a pass side only vent window. All three of these Yenko race cars appear to have the same side mirror and "Starsky and Hutch" light on the roof. I believe Don used this light to ID his car to the pit crew (at night)in an endurance race and also as one of his jokes. Don was also known to have big air horns on some of his race cars.
