BODYWORK/TRIM

One cant help but smile when they look at a Camaro this cool. Assembled in Norwood Ohio its everything car guys dream of from the first time they say muscle car to the day they trade their high octane V8 for an electric rascal motor. Decked in custom Emerald Green 2-stage and displaying a traditional array of Yenko Super Car stripes this Chevy is the product of a detailed ground-up restoration that was completed in 2012. Its profile is a carefully orchestrated combination of excellent panel gaps doors that close better than new and a flat finish that stretches from tip to tail. And presently a mere 160 miles out of the paint booth this Chevy is one high quality head turner which sets the standard for any pony car that dare show its face at the same cruise night.

And at the back of the car a YENKO 427 branded valance aligns segmented taillights between polished exhaust tips an optional D80 deck spoiler and a second showroom-fresh bumper.

At the sides of that intake stamped and chromed valve covers hang multi-color Yenko decals above date-correct Winters rectangle-port heads. At the back of those covers a rebuilt points distributor sends fire through familiar Packard TV R Suppression cables which snake around date-correct exhaust manifolds. Opposite that distributor traditional V-belts spin a date-correct crank pulley and date-correct water pump pulley behind a date-correct fan blade. Cooling is provided by a 4-core heavy duty radiator which funnels water through reproduction GM hoses and
