So has anybody ever considered putting yenko stripes on a third gen? Im sure it would require some modification to a new graphics kit, but I think it would look pretty nice. What do you guys think, good idea, or desecration of a classic?

 

(yes! 2 69-lol) lol um whats yenko stripes??

 

I dont have time to dig up pics right now, but heres the link to the phoenix grafix 1969 Camaro kit page:

And heres a lil bit more info on yenko camaros:

Never seen them before, but I'd like to. Seen some 69 ss hockey strips on a 4th gen and it looked sweet

 

If you did it, you wouldn't actually put "Yenko" on them, would you?

 

you would just have to curve the stripes a little bit to go with the body or it would look weird but it's a cool idea. I like thinking of our cars as classics instead of hickmobiles, just makes them that much funner.

 

i think ive only seen one older car with the yenko stickers that why i didnt know what they were.........im not even sure what kind of car it was but im pretty sure it wasnt a camaro

 

a yenko third gen would be sweet with a 427

 

HELL YEAH! Get one of those new Ramjet ZL1s!!!!! :hail: :hail: :hail: :hail: :hail:

 

I think those stripes would look great. So go for it. If you dont like it then you take them off again.

 

Yenko built camaros, novas, and a bunch of other old chevy cars.

And yes it would look sweet on a third gen!:hail:

 

no it doesnt belong on a 3rdgen, design something from the scratch if you want graphics on your car.

 

um ok why not yenko fixed up the 69 why couldnt they do a third gen

 

Because the Yenko establishment is out of business. Don Yenko died in the early 80's in a plane crash. His family did not continue the auto business. The last Yenko conversion was on the 81 Camaro. (pic Below)

Since there has been an uprising on the 2002 Camaro with the ZL1 Supercar and the other Berger cars, Dana, Nickey, Baldwin/Motion and the Yenko estate are all in discussions on having a 4th gen "Supercar" built. We already have the Berger SS and the Berger built ZL1, we just need to wait and see what the others can resurrect.

 

They did!

Let's not forget the '83 race car Yenko did....

 

Damn, this thread took off in the whole day i was away from the computer. Thanks for the responses guys, so far it seems like the general opinion is in favor of the idea.

 

i would love to see how that looks. i'm not sure if i would like it, but it might look good.

 

Yeah, the concept is definitely worth a shot. Maybe someday, when I own a camaro again ill try it.

 

damn that 83 is ugly

 

hehehe...berger chevy is about 2 miles away from my house.....love those berger camaros...my dad almost bought a white one iwth black hockey strip[es

 

bet its fast

 

I don't have any set theme with my car, but when I do something to it I always ask myself how GM would do it. Then I try to improve upon that concept. I think it would be really cool to have a 3rd gen with safety equipment such as airbags, ABS, HUD, Factory keyless entry/alarm, Bose Gold system, and 17/18" rims. I may go in that direction as time and money allow. We shall see I guess

 

Its not how GM "would" do it. Its how GM should have done it.
