1968 Chevrolet Yenko Camaro

GM introduced the Camero to the 'pony wars' in 1967 but decided to not make it too powerful, leaving the Corvette on top of the heap. The Camaro was limited to a 6.6-liter V8, which meant that Ford's Mustang, Plymouth Barracuda, and even the Dodge Dart had more power. Yenko shrewdly built his own high-performance Camaros, ordering cars in SS trim and then dropping in the very same L72 V8 available in the Corvette. Estimates place the number of 1967 Yenko Super Camaros built at 106.
For 1968 Yenko used the COPO ordering system. Today these cars are the apex and icons of American muscle. Fewer than 20 of the original 64 1968 Chevrolet Yenko Camaros prepared by Yenko Chevrolet in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, are known to exist today. The car is equipped with factory front and rear spoilers, power front disc brakes, a Muncie M21 4-speed manual transmission and 4.10:1 12-bolt Positraction rear end. The car made $600,000
11 Rally Sport Yenko Camaros were built in 1968. Rare Matador Red with Black vinyl top and stripes. Signature Yenko Hood, center caps, badges and Stewart Warner column tach. 427/450 HP L72 engine. M21 4-speed manual. High bid to $500,000
