I've been offered a Yenko Camaro very cheap

[DarrenX33]

You know it's funny that this came up. I have several friends in Brasil. They have seen my car on visits to the US. I was talking to one during the week and he told me he went to a cruise night and someone had a 69 Camaro there. I was curious to find out how much something like that goes for in Brasil. He signed me up on a website for used cars. I logged in and didn't see any Camaros for sale but I found it interesting that when I typed in 69 Camaro for a search it turned up a "history of" page. Imagine seeing vintage pictures of a Bill Thomas drag car among other COPO cars. All the text obviously in Portuguese with a "COPO" and "Z-L1" thrown in here and there. Even references to Motion and Nickey Chevrolet of Chicago. Don't doubt it. Looks like they like American Muscle to.

What I forgot to mention is that while there seems to be an interest in the cars down there.. In your particular case there seems to be a strong odor of fish coming from you post. Proceed with extreme caution. Wonder how easy it was to get the parts to restore it 95%?

belair you are showing your feminine side..la is feminine,El is masculine...therefore it is el camarito and la camarita,NOT la camarito....put spanish word check on your posts Better practice up,youll need to speak spanish when you go inspect the yenko in Peru...

Seriously, this sounds like a scam like on EBay lately. Be very careful.

I guess if someone was going to pay the money to ship one it might as well be the right car!

In your first post you stated you have little doubt its a real yenko... I asked once and will ask again, what makes you think its real besides the stripes I'm assuming it has? In your latest posts you don't seem as sure about the legitimacy of the car... what color is it? What other details are leading you to believe its a car that was built in Canonsburg PA and is now in South America and for sale cheap?

paint? its flat black, its obviously not the original. probably painted a few years ago.

what makes me think is a yenko??

the cars title in peru usually copies the importation paper car name.

it said 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Yenko. i have not seen the original importation papers, but the title always copy the brand name of the importation papers. this means it was imported as a 1969 chevrolet camaro yenko.

i doubt who imported the car 30 years ago was going to pass it thru customs as a yenko just because, knowing they are more expensive, thus paying more taxes when importing.

Cool..If you can get the vin and maybe trim tag info we can tell you if it is real. There should be someone here that can give advise as to how to get it into the US.
