It's a mystery to exact numbers. Some say a total of around a 1000 including Camaro's.
Values are very dependent on matching numbers, paperwork, and condition. Six figures on the high end for #1 condition.Last edited by Scott Liggett; June 2, 2012, 01:18 AM.BS'er formally known as Rebeldryver

I owned a 69 COPO chevelle from 1974 to 1985-sold new in Columbus, Ohio. I drove it from Ohio to SoCal in 1981. Sold it with 11,000 mles and showroom condition in 1985 for 10K at the Pomona swap meet. Last I heard it was in New Jersey. It ran 11.70s with some chassis prep and 9 inch slicks. I was the second owner and the guy I bought it from also had a yellow Yenko 69 427 Camaro sitting next to it. I paid 1800 for it-the oil embargo of 73 was upon us and the muscle dcar years were dying...what a deal for a fantastic car-I obviously wish I still had it!Last edited by stage1scott; June 2, 2012, 06:45 AM.67 Fairlane 434 ci/464 hp/488 tq-RIP

What are they worth? I suspect whatever someone's willing to pay. A legit Yenko, in top shape?... +$200k? I think the only thing that may hold down its value is that it wasn't a 1970 (which commands the most dollars in the Chevelle world).Nitrous, baby!!...

The reason I ask, is I dont know much about them other than it was a dealer installed thing, and someone on another forum was saying they are multi million dollar cars and only 6 were left. So I was wondering where the hell he got his info I never heard anything about extremely low production, like Hemi Cuda verts kind of low. The pic in question looks like a nice black 69 Malibu post with a Yenko stripe and some Cragar SST wheels. There are only a few muscle cars that go into the millions, and that is more a case of people with more money than brains instead of actual value. Shelby 427 Cobra would probably be a million value, give or take....
Thanks for the info guys.

A buddy built a 69 YSC Camaro clone...
He ALWAYS was up front that it is a clone..
Stripes, paint, big block, carpets, and floor mats were repops..
Big block was a 502...
Sold with very very few miles on it to remodel his house got $35K..
We all hope it does not be passed off as the real McCoy sometime down the road... It was that good...rode like a brand new 69 Camaro, which is what it actually was when he was done..
