1969 Yenko Camaro Stripe Placement

**Stefano** · #1 10-23-2001, 11:58 PM

I would like to know the correct placement for the Yenko Camaro Stripe kit. I have observed many different applications.

Did Yenko have a standardized set of directions? My stripe kit has no directions.
Any help and info will be appreciated.

Welcome to the site. Many of the stripes on the original Yenkos were applied by kids working during the summers at Yenko Chev. Needless to say, each was a bit different. There is no "standard" instructions that I am aware of. Perhaps the best course of action is to visit some car shows and look through old magazines to get a better idea of the proper placement. Do you own a Yenko Camaro?

Thanks for the welcome. I have been researching the stripes, at car shows and in pictures, just as you suggested.

I have seen two different kits. One has a one peice quarter pannel stripe, while others such as mine have two quarter peices. Which stripe overlaps the other? ect... ect...?

I have a Douglas COPO,which was delivered from Douglas Chevrolet, with complete Yenko stripes and badges.

The car was repainted, and I want to replace the stripes as correctly as possible.

The Douglas/Yenko clone COPO's are an interesting twist to the story. What color is you COPO?...BKH

Mine is 'Daytona', Yellow/ Yellow.

Please share your information regarding the Douglas COPOs w/Yenko stripes.

I have only heard of the Yenko striped COPO from Douglas. Is your car a 9737 COPO as well? From what I understand Douglas was striping his cars as Yenko's without permission. Any optional equippement on your car?...BKH
