I believe they were pretty popular in the SCCA circuits, and considered some of the hotest stock Chevys ever put on the market. They have become pretty rare now so an original can fetch a pretty penny.

    This would be a striping job that is unique to Yenko.

    As for the different packages .. There was the RS, SS, and the Z28.
    Those packages can actually be combined such as the RS/SS or RS/Z28 etc etc. The car you have shown appears to be a RS/SS. The RS package is what gave it the headlight covers.

    Z/28 package alone didn't have the covered headlights.
    So instead of searching for the 427 Camaro you should probably look for the RS, SS and Z28 designations. The 427 wasn't available in the Camaro in 1969 through normal dealerships. It was considered a COPO (Central Office Production Order) car and was only available to certain dealerships, race teams, and organizations such as Yenko.

    Hope this helps and really looking forward to what you come up with.

    That was very informative. So, it would be accurate to say that a blue 1969 Chevy Camaro RS SS with two stripes down the hood and a 427 under the hood could exist right?

    Yes. It would be a COPO car if it was done at the factory. That is a bit of a loaded question, for the right price just about anything is possible. No matter if it was done at the factory or not.. it would be one bad mudda....


    Just swap the the 350 for the 427 and this is what it would look like

    you can order the chevy bowtie emblems off the internet for pretty cheap, that would look cool with a light behind it in a window or something like that

    Well one of the coolest things about Classic Dodge Muscle were the colors!!

    "Panther Pink"

    "Plum Crazy"

    "GO ManGO"

    "Sublime" One of my favorites!

    "Top Banana"
    And of course they wouldn't be complete without their Flat satin or "suede" black graphics. I can image are VERY cool looking design with these colors!

    The Dodge Charger Daytona is probably the grail of Mopar.


    That rear spoiler was uber cool in its day and made it the dominant car in the Winston cup. There are just so many really cool aspects of classic Mopars!!
    Like the shape of the 1970 SuperBee front grill!

    Dressed in Sublime of course!!
    I could go on an on, so I am really looking forward to what you come up with now!!
