I'd like to see how much better this '67 Yenko clone could look with a low pro-touring ride height.

If someone wouldn't mind using their skills I'd appreciate it. :twothumbs

Thank you.

Here is a quick slam. Really cool car. Makes me want to see a "modern Yenko"

I agree Skip. Looks killer.

Coming from a staunch '69 Camaro fan, that is high praise indeed Mr. Tones! :1st:

I found a real '67 Yenko Camaro and they don't have the flags on the front fenders.

So I 'took' them off Otis's fine chop.

There are some great wheels out there obviously, but Rally's just seem to fit this car better IMO. I'd run 17's to keep the basic look the Yenko's have. I know you lose the ability to run the biggest brakes, but I doubt I'd need 'em.

Hi Al,

Thanks for the chop.

The clone you chopped was sold by a dealer. I remember they were asking $42K.

This genuine Yenko sold at Mecum last year for $480K.

I'll be honest, just lowering that car did not improve its appearance for me. In fact, because the rest of the style of the car is so retro, the higher stance looks more "right". But it wouldn't take much to get "the look":

Wyatt,

Nice work, that style looks good also.
