Is the 11/67 Ad above the subject car w/ 327 mistakenly noted instead of 427 also 11/68 Yenko Stinger Ad possibly the same car after being traded back in to Craig Chevrolet?
Here’s one more 07/68 Ad below that may be it before being traded back to Craig Chevy plus two faint hope later possibles also lastly, a couple cool Yenko Racing articles that popped up while combing the old Oklahoma Newspapers.
I have more old Oklahoma Hi-Performance also RT Ayers Ads saved but don’t want to further sidetrack this Yenko car thread, anyone please speak up if a better place for them to land or I'll post them over in the Old Newspaper Ads thread.

I live in Edmond, OK and had purchased a 1969 HP SS Camaro 396/375 from Craig's Chevrolet. The salesman's name was Bob Ford and he was into HP Chevrolets. Bob Ford later owned the dealership and it became Bob Ford Chevrolet (remember Ford selling a Chevrolet). In about 1975? Bob Ford owned a small Chevrolet dealership in Crescent OK. I purchased a 1978 Blazer from Bob Ford in Crescent.



Both dealerships are long gone. The Edmond location is now a U-Haul store and shop but most of the original building is still in use by U-Haul.

A '67 in butternut is just sooooooo clean!

The 15X6 wheels were probably DF wheels used on 67 & 68 Z/28's which had front disc brakes. The 67 Corvette "C2" 15X6 DC wheels had a different offset than the Camaro DF 15X6 wheel.
Agree on color but I'm partial to Butternut Yellow LOL. Great Find.....

some Yenko paper work shows G70x15 tires and Rally wheels on some 67 Yenko Camaros
I think those were an SS Impala tire option
