I have seen it on a green v6, did not look good on that car. I do think the right car could pull it off.

I've thought about that, and wondered myself, I think it would be cool, especially with a small cowl hood, with the Yenko decal, and sidestripe, and in the seats. And maybe a 427 to go with it.

The hurters' do good work! If you have Yenko on the car you better be able to back it up! That car looked awesome Yenko was painted on the side of the car where the Dick Harrell stripes were.

At the F-Body Gathering in Bowling Green a few years back there was a 1999 Hugger Orange Z28, with the full Yenko decal job . . . I wonder if I have pics at home . . .

im sorry, im not a fan of making fake Yenko cars.

you guys do realize that Yenko is a dealership. the owner of the dealership would take small motor cars and swap in crate big blocks. this was done mainly for insurance reasons, as they would insure the car for a value based on the smaller engine.

unless they are done at Yenko Chevrolet, i see it as stupid to call it that.
