Would anyone happen to remember anything about Don Yenko's old club raced 1957 corvette? He called it "The Old Ogre". Donna Mae Mimms wrote about the car in an old 1960 October issue of The Flying Fiberglass. Don wrote about the car in the December issue. It referenced George Nosky who purchased the car from Don.
