Yenko Gauges ???

[Rumbleguts396]

Hello Yenko friends !!! I was hoping someone can help me properly I.D. these gauges? As seen in the picture the face of gauges say "sYc". The back of both gauges say made in the U.S.A. They have definitely been used/mounted in the past. The mounting holes show slight surface wear from slight over tightening. Very light pitting and light scratches. I was hoping to find out if these were Original to a Yenko Chevrolet? or are these some type of after market reproduction item? In my searches on a history of these comes up with nothing. It appears to me Yenko cars had Green face gauges. Any help or thoughts anyone has please throw them my way.


Thanks, ROB

Gauges were an extra charge option on the Yenko. Most w Stewart-Warner Greenline gauges, although some were S-W black face (don't know the model name) Most were 2- 5/8", but some were 2- 1/4".

I've never seen ones like your pic. I'm betting they are a made- up item.

I have looked and searched for another set like them. Came up with nothing. The face is very high quality. I thank you for your time and thoughts. ROB

Can I have em ? I'm guessing someone had them made. I have never seen anything like them before but they look cool.

Hi Charlie, Thanks for the kind words. I was hoping these were some rare one off original !!! Oh well. I have them in my man cave display case. ROB

I find it hard to believe someone would make a "one off" set of gauges like these -- I think there is more to this story. Don Yenko had all kinds of little "projects" and this may have been one of them. TAZ

Joe Barr is one of the most knowledgeable Yenko collectibles experts in the world. Give him a day or so, and he will probably chime in. If not, PM him.
