Gold Yenko at Mecum sets record

[JoeC]

The gold "Yenko 427 Drag Special" is one of the top 1969 Yenko Camaros because of its Yenko history and drag racing history

In my opinion, the Daytona Yellow Ed Hedrick Yenko would be top but it is said to be destroyed.

The Hugger orange survivor 69 Yenko is a top car and sold for $715k

Some of the high level restored cars would bring top money

The gold car has one of the best stories and sometimes its the car's story that brings more interest.
The "Yenko 427 Drag Special" was in Super Stock Magazine and was on the cover of Drag Times, was driven by Ed Hedrick, and was tuned by Grumpy , Strickler and Jerry Stahl at the track test. (four big names in Super Stock in 1969)

It was also used as a demonstrator and had headers, scattershield, and Atlas Mags.
All documented in a 1969 magazine.
