Catching both the automotive industry and the American motor-
ing public by surprise, Ford released the new Mustang in April, 1964
to unprecedented success. Its smaller, two door profile along with
its long hood/short rear deck design made a lasting impression on
everyone who saw it.
Stunned by the sales numbers the Mustang was racking up, it
took until 1967 for General Motors to bring its competitors to market.
Chevrolet
®
unveiled the new ’67 Camaro
®
in the fall of 1966. Among
the available options was the "SS"
™
package that included the new
350 cubic inch engine. In a classic example of corporate competi-
tion, Ford offered its 390 engine in the Mustang for ’67 which of
course spurred Chevy
®
to release its 396 big block V8 as a mid-year
Camaro option.
The 396 Camaros burned up the drag strips across the coun-
try, but fans also knew that Chevy had an even larger 427 cubic
inch V8 in its arsenal. When initial requests for the factory to install
the 427 into the Camaro were turned down, enterprising Chevrolet
dealers started ordering the engines by themselves and swapped
the big motors in. Don Yenko was one such dealer. Owning a large
Chevy dealership in Pennsylvania, Yenko used his connections
within the GM management to convince Chevy in 1969 to write what
was known as a "COPO" order, which stood for Corporate Office
Production Order. These were used for special combinations of
options that were not generally available.
Don Yenko grabbed up 201 of the special 427 powered ’69
Camaros for his dealership. All of the Yenko cars came equipped
with the 450 horsepower version of the iron block 427, high-rise
intake with Holley 4 barrel carb, power disc brakes, the ZL2 cowl
induction hood, positraction rear end with 4.10 gear and the custom-
er’s choice of a 4 speed manual transmission or GM’s M40 Turbo-
Hydramatic automatic transmission which in this case came with
Hurst’s dual-gate linkage. Yenko’s staff added the horizontal body
stripes and headrest graphics after the cars arrived at his dealership.
Today, original Yenkos are among the most sought after Camaros
ever built
