Great ad, but that was a lot of money at that time. I was looking at 69 Z-28's for $1,800-$2,500 at the time and stretched to buy a mint '70 RS Z-28 for $2,9000. Today '69 Z-28's are typically in the $20K-$30K range and Yenko Chevelles are still 4 times as much. Guess it's all relative.

The '502' area code is in the Louisville, KY area I believe. I know that a Butternut Yellow, 4speed, no v/t, Yenko Chevelle was sold out of V.V.Cooke in Louisville. I believe that Belair62 has it now /ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

Hey Charlie. My name is Darren. I just joined the Registry after SCR5. I was thrilled to see your cars there. Glad to hear you will be at Vettefest. What will you be bringing with you?

The Vettefest People approached Dennis Barker at Berger about doing a Berger display. Dennis wants to put my 2 Yellow ZL1's at the head of his display. I think he is planning on having about 15 Berger cars there. It really just means I won't get my cars back for another 2 months.

Bob,
Did you pick up a copy of the "Robb Report Collection" The info is a little off, but its cool to have for any Yenko Chevelle owner.
