A meticulously built 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS is drawing attention as a faithful recreation of one of the most legendary American muscle cars ever produced. Finished in Marina Blue with a contrasting white bumblebee nose stripe, the coupe is presented as an exact Xerox-style duplicate of one of the original 54 Yenko Supercars built in 1967, offering the look and presence of a rare collectible without the prohibitive cost.
Under the hood sits a 427-cubic-inch V8 rated at 450 horsepower and equipped with solid lifters, delivering the kind of raw performance that defined the late-1960s muscle car era. Power is sent through a Muncie four-speed manual transmission and routed to a 12-bolt rear axle with Positraction and 3.73 gearing, a combination closely associated with high-performance street and strip use.
The car is equipped with power steering and power-assisted front disc brakes, balancing its aggressive mechanical package with improved control. A correct Yenko-style hood and matching Yenko emblems reinforce the visual connection to the original cars. Additional exterior details include 15-inch Rally wheels wrapped in radial redline tires, contributing to the period-correct stance.
Inside, the Camaro features a new black standard interior with Super Wide gauges, a knee-knocker tachometer, and an AM/FM radio. The cabin has been updated with new tinted glass, while retaining a restored GM stainless rear antenna option. Electric headlight doors have been added, offering a subtle modernization while preserving the car’s classic appearance.
The suspension system is entirely new, supporting the builder’s stated intent that this Camaro is meant to be driven rather than preserved as a static showpiece. Unlike original Yenko cars that are often locked away due to their value, this replica emphasizes usability while maintaining visual and mechanical authenticity.
Although the car shows zero miles, its presentation highlights craftsmanship rather than preservation. By closely mirroring one of the most desirable Camaros of the era, this 1967 RS/SS replica captures the spirit of the original Yenko Supercars while offering an experience that can still be enjoyed on the road.
