Re: 1969 Yenko Camaro colors?
 

Did all of the Monaco Orange Chevelles receive black stripes or was it a mix of black and white? How about vinyl tops?

Re: 1969 Yenko Camaro colors?
 

There are four ( Chevy called it Monaco, Yenko called Hugger) Orange TH400 Yenko Chevelles listed with vinyl top. I know at least one had black stripes and I have heard at least one was white stripes. In the Year One catolog there is a Monaco Orange Yenko Chevelle with white stripes and no vinyl top. It looks like the picture was taken at a car show and there is a Grn Ã69 Yenko Nova parked next to it. Anyone know the history of that Yenko Chevelle? Year one gives no details on it.

To my knowledge only 2 of the estimated 7 Monaco Orange Yenko Chevelles have been located, and both are black stripe cars. Of the 7, 4 are heavily optioned with a/t's, p/s, v/t, rear antenna, bucket seats, and special paint at an additional $33.75, (cost $26.78). The 3 four speed cars were sparsely optioned with apparently just an AM radio with bench seats.

Yes, there was at least one Yellow/white stripe Camaro built, mine. It was an original paint/stripe car when I bought it from Cliff. When I restored the car, I did not know that the white stripes might make it one of one. Instead I just went with what I liked. Shows how smart I am. An interesting sidenote, the original owner (and friends) swear that the car was equipped with aluminum heads when bought new at Frances Chevrolet. Tom

I believe the Year One Chevelle is R.Miller's Garnet Red car, it is his dark green Y-Nova as well. I think it is just a poor colored photo.

Marlin, I believe you're right on the color of the Yenko Chevelle in YEAR One because there is a LS6 on the next page that also looks Orange and is probably Red. I thought the owner of the other Monaco Orange Yenko Chevelle told me it was a white stripe car but I am not possitive.

The Yenko Chevelle with the white stripes and red color may look orange in pictures. The car was Garnet Red but was repainted an incorrect shade of red that is more bright than true Garnet Red.

A couple of yrs ago there was a orange auto COPO Chevelle for sale at Carlisle. It had white stripes and white interior. Anyone know anything about this car?

Re: 1969 Yenko Camaro colors?
 

JoeC:
I do not know what color stripes the other Monaco Orange Chevelle will be. The owner also has a green, (but might be red), Y-Chevelle. We will have to wait and see what is created!!
