1969 Yenko Camaro at Harrisburg, PA Motorama

[bergy]

I just got home from watching our grandson race at the Motorama in Harrisburg this weekend (he won his class!). While there I also got to look over the show cars. There was a beautiful DY 1969 Yenko Camaro on display. I visited with the guy who was baby sitting the car for quite a while - the owner wasn't present. All of the docs were there for the car - POP, bill of sale, finance papers, etc. When I got home I looked the car up on my list and, sure enough, it was on there - #677385. My list, however, doesn't indicate the selling dealership or trans type. I'm sure that I could get the owner to register the car if this data isn't already on file. He actually has two Yenkos. The DY one is pretty stunning!!!!

My notes are a bit out of date, but that car was once owned by a guy named Jerry Ewert. I'm thinking he was from Canada maybe? That is a late car, 08E I believe - after the body numbers started over too.

Yep - sold new out of Colonial. I didn't know if it was registered with SYC or not.

Was that a 4-spd. or Auto. My records indicate a blk top?. And i have the bdy.# to that car and yes they did reset.

Nice the DY paint looks right on... one of my favorite colors when mixed correctly.

Could it be one of the black hat Camaros in the cool pics of the Yenko transport at Colonial that've been posted here before?.
