I tracked these down from a guy in Ohio who had them for years... the envelope is postmarked 1974 and the label reads "69 427 Yenko Super Camaro". I actually have a copy of one of the photos already but 3 of them I have never seen before. They are shots of the gold magazine road test car, and the one with the mag wheels appears to have been taken at the track during the day of the test. The other shot appears to be the same car wearing rally wheels and an inventory tag in the drivers side window... looks to have been photographed in Chicago(!?) Seems this car got around. Just thought I'd share.
Heres the envelope... ![]() |

Yenko postmark...ironically it was stamped exactly a year and a day before I was born.

Last one... I think this was taken in Chicago, and imagine it's the same gold road test car, based on the emblem and stripe placement.

Has this car been located? Restored? it would be neat to put the emblems on like they are in the photos and watch the "experts" chime in... LOL
