So would the 69 COPO L72 427 be the baddest Elco, or the 70 LS6 454 be??? For 1/4 mile stuff!

The F'book '69 Camino looks to be FG w/ Yenko stripe kit as screenshot pics below.
'69 Camino L89's were indeed built also possibly Copo 9511 factory 456/488 rear axle cars but I'm not a believer in this example being a factory L72 '69 Camino or any others w/o substantial facts presented, someone please lay them out if any truths to be had.

So, were there actually Yenko 427 el Caminos built? Couldn't follow that on this thread. If so, wow, what a cool car that would be. The FG one above is sharp, and the stripe kit looks great on it, real or not.

Charley, that L89 el Camino sounds really cool. I must have missed it before, sounds really neat.

I'm not going to say someone didn't roll into Yenko and ask for a 427 to be dropped in his ElCo, that is a high possibility during that era, so who knows. But a COPO 427 El Camino with stripes applied by a teenage Lynn Yenko like the other Camaros and Chevelles? I will give that a hard NO and wait to be proven wrong.

I have not seen any 1969 427 Yenko ElCaminos

suppose its possible if there was a costumer order for one but would need good baby pictures or paper to prove out

that green one looks like it has a lot of 1968 parts on it like ft bumper , fender and side trim ,
fender emblem
