Default '69 Yenko Camaro tribute car

The owner of the martial arts studio my kids and myself go to invited me over to see his new car.
Apologies for the poor picture quality - iPhone. Need to grab the Nikon Saturday.

Ground up restoration. This thing is mint.




My 560hp grocery getter.


If your planning to go to Cars and Coffee this Saturday he's planning to cruise up there with me.

Nice cars, Ive always wanted a Nickey 67 SS. If I ever get another 67 I will build it as a tribute to it.

It's not an original. Tribute means from the ground up they made everything like the original even over spray where it appeared on the factory cars. The interior and even rubber seals on the trunk are new like they were from the factory.

My understanding clone cars are just like converting a ls1 z28 to an SS by buying the hood and wing. Doesn't mean they went to the trouble to match everything from the original factory specs.
