If anyone needs some help regarding the way and original 1967 yenko/harrell was like, let me know, I just bought a 1969 SS396 Camaro from a gentleman who bought a 67 Yenko, SS/RS white, auto. 410 HP, in Kansas City MO in 1967, he gave me some pictures of the car! Unfortunately the car was stolen from him and has not been recovered, he still has the original bill of sale, if anyone has any leads, please let me know, or if you have a yenko, this car belongs to its' rightful owner.

Of the about 10 67' Yenkos that I know of there is one white 4 speed car.

That white 4-speed you know of must be the one that was in the showroom.

the Yenko list shows a N241937 YS#747 with AT.
If you can ask the owner if he had these items or
In the pictures do you see any headers, traction bars, hood pins, scatter shield, tach.
Most of the paperwork shows the 67 Yenkos came set up for drag racing and were advertised "AHRA legal designed by Dick Harrell" but these are mostly 450hp cars.
What does it have for fender emblems?

No scattershield, it was/is and automatic car, I'll look tonight for hood pins and traction bars, For sure the SS on the fender, by the marker light, and 427 on the Stinger hood, style taken from the Corvette, also a 1-piece fiberglass rear trunk lid/spoiler, in which I have never seen another. The car also came from the dealer with redlines on rally wheels.

That is the other car, because the one my friend has (#937)came from Bill Allen Chevrolet. The car was stolen in 1969, in the Northeast. Iam looking at the pictures of #937, it had hood pins, and appeared to have traction bars, rear tailpan and spoiler were blacked out, vinyl top also
