As far as I know, no one in the automotive forums own a 69 Yenko.

Yenko's came witha 427, that had 425 HP
0-60 in 5.4 sec, 1/4 mile in 13.5 sec @ 102mph

Be prepared to pay alot of money if you dont know already, as real Yenkos are hard to find, and can range up to about 30K.

Hell of a lot more than $30. A nice 69 will fetch 30, a Yenko??? I've seen them advertised for $50+, actually saw one for somewhere near $70. NOW that might not be what they actually sold for, but still...

[Rally Sport]

Wel Jim, the reason I said upto 30K was because I was looking at old 60s Maros and saw MANY for under like 10, hell many were under 5K even SS but I have seen a Yenko selling for about 20-30K, not calling you a liar but that's what i've seen. but MAN 70K is TOO MUCH for a Yenko, even though I love the crap outta them, i'd expect to pay 70K for a 69 Charger because those are rare after the Dukes of Hazzard crashed a bunch of em.

[Earlsfat]

If you're looking at a Yenko under $30k its either in abysmal shape or it's a clone. I haven't seen a honest, documented 69 Yenko for anything close to $30k.

[Rally Sport]

I honestly didnt think that they went for more than that. Oh well i'll look around.

[Earlsfat]

A 70 RS/SS in concours restore / original shape are woth $30k+, and they're not even CLOSE to being a 69 Yenko in terms of desireability or rarity. What did they make 300??? Most are either dead and gone, or ina collection someplace. You'll pay with blood or testicles to get a REAL one.

[Rally Sport]

I will have to agree on you there, because they did make around 300..

I want a Z/28 '67, they only made like 600 of those so can you imagine them? They only made em in manual, and you cant even tell its a Z28 because they dont have any badges on the outside.

[SMOKEY818]

i saw one on ebay a actual yenko and they wanted over 100k, so it's definetly over 30, you see regular restored maro for that price.

[Earlsfat]

yeah... that's just plain assed crazy though.

[Rally Sport]

Man it'd be so much easier/cheaper to freaking buy one that is all crapped out, and then restore it.

You're just a little off here so I'll help you out. I found this in my American Muscle Cars book.

Super Stock & Drag Illustrated tested a '69 Yenko Sports Cars 427 Camaro in its July 1969 issue and the results were mind-boggling. The only deviating from a production 427/425 engine was a set of open Dough Thorley headers. With 8-inch-wide M&H slicks the 4.10 gears, the Camaro rolled to an 11.94 at 114.50 mph.

If I read this right this was a little option you could mark above a normal Yenko.

I've heard if one went on sale today like on e-bay or the open market, the owner could easily set the starting price at 1 million.

Alright, everyone back off, I made a mistake

Muscletang, I looked up those in www.musclecarclub.com and there's a bunch of info there, so yeah, thats a quick Camaro though.
