One of the most sought-after Chevrolet Camaros ever made was the "Yenko Camaro." A way of getting around General Motor's stipulation that Camaro's could not have an engine larger than 400ci (6.6-liters), the Camaro Yenko was a dealer-sanctioned custom creation that swapped in the L72 427ci engine from the Corvette. They were named after the racer and dealership-owner that came up with the idea, Don Yenko. While original Yenko Camaros are thin on the ground, tributes like this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, located in Delray Beach, Florida, offer the originals' style and performance in an attainable package.
