Default 68 Yenko Camaro wheels

Are there any pics that show the original wheels and hubcaps on a 68 Yenko?
Or any cars that still have the originals (more doubtful, IMO)?

Thanks!

orig wheels on a 68 yenko - non converted are the 14 inch XF wheels with copo center caps from the factory

yenko changed them out on the converted cars and installed 14x6 Pontiac wheels - JC code I believe

Thanks! That's the info I was missing.
I think the Pontiac wheels came on the 68's from the factory. The broadcast sheet for YS8008 shows some hubcap code (80) I've never seen and JC wheels!

It's the only 68 Yenko known to have a broadcast sheet.
