Re: Supercar Photographs
#70. This Yenko Camaro was sold new at Van T. Chevrolet in Mission KS. It is 1 of 4 known Olympic Gold Yenko Camaros. I posted pictures of the one sold by Jack Douglass earlier. There is also the one in the Brothers Collection that was sold by Stauffer and then there's C. Ernst's magazine test car that was sold by Yenko. This car was restored by the Supercar Workshop and was featured in the June 2010 issue of Muscle Car Review. It was also pictured in Bob McClurg's Yenko book and American Muscle Supercars.

#71. This Yenko Camaro is an 01B car that was sold new at Jack Douglass Chevrolet in Hinsdale IL. If I remember the story correctly the original engine was destroyed when a rod decided to exit the block. After exiting the block it damaged the cross member. When the car was restored the cross member was left as is.

Re: Supercar Photographs
Olympic Gold is beautiful and so underrated.

Re: Supercar Photographs
So without searching for an answer in this thread -- what is the hole in the cross member? Looks like it was simply chiseled out...

Re: Supercar Photographs
#72. This COPO Chevelle was sold new at Earl Evans in Painesville OH. To my knowledge it is the only known Dusk Blue COPO Chevelle. It has 29K original miles and is unrestored. I believe it has it's entire original drivetrain as well. It is a bench seat car with a M22. It was featured in the May 2009 issue of Muscle Car Review.
