Only 201 of these 1969 Yenko Camaros were ever built, and this one’s owner hoped it would clear $300,000 at auction.

Commenters also debated which of the 201 cars are truly the most desirable, and warned future buyers just how much paperwork it takes to prove a Yenko is real. Watch the sale and the debate it sparked.

It’s a buyers guide built from decades of watching these cars change hands, including one correction Hagerty had to issue after the fact. Watch to find out what even an executive editor got wrong on camera.
This 2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible has covered under 4,400 miles since new, spending most of its life with a single Ford collector before landing at Vanguard Motor Sales.

See what a documented drag-strip pedigree and a 700-horsepower six-pack stroker look like on the same car.
Most restored Chevelles come with a history full of guesswork.

Finished in the uncommon factory color Burnished Brown and treated to a full frame-off restoration, this California car has the paper trail most restored muscle cars only claim to have.

A factory mix-up put an SS badge on this 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible — and when it was restored decades later, the family that had owned it since new put the mistake right back on, badge and all.

This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS traveled from Georgia to Florida to an Indianapolis museum before landing on Vanguard Motor Sales’ lot with its original factory build sheet still intact.

Hagerty’s series keeps proving how much original muscle is still hiding in plain sight. Watch to see what else Tom finds.
Rick Schmidt and Jeff Ford head to a real auction in Raleigh, North Carolina to test whether the intimidating reputation classic car auctions have with first-time buyers actually holds up.

One viewer says they watched the whole episode without skipping around, calling Rick’s expertise genuinely informative. Watch to see what actually happens once the bidding starts.
