This is my favorite of all the Yenkos. The white was really a neat color for them. Don should have added this color to his line up...

Good luck John. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

To reiterate what was said above...Good Luck John!

Thanks for the memories (and the ride) from SCR8.

If you'd like...you can use any of the pictures that I took of your Yenko...or any of the videos for that matter in your auction. Let me know!

Sad to see you let her go John, she is like one of your family and has brought a lot of joy and excitement over the years to you. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Thanks guys, I think the days of enjoying this car for what I think it should be enjoyed for are now over. I,m sure for someone else it could just be begining. I met a lot of good friends since owning this car. The car might go, we will see what happens but the friends I will still have.
Time to do a Pace car I keep saying next year and as long as I own the Yenko I do not think next year will ever come. I want to keep the L78 pace car, the L78 Chevelle conv and the 67 Chevelle. The Challenger and Yenko hopefully find a new home if not the Pace car can wait another year. This is definetly my favorite shot.
Maybe if I buy a Mercedes I can hang around with Gags again.

This is quite an outstanding car. Would be a great
addition to any collection of ultra rare muscle cars.

Good Luck, Brad

John, Well said! I think you got a good plan and seem willing to stick to it. Your 375 horse BB car is also very nice and rare. I bet everytime you walk out into your garage that car is saying...."what about me, what about me" http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif Good luck ! Sam

Well...if you still have the car November 18-19, how about bringing it to Vettefest? I am sure there is a spot for you in the sYc Showcase! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif
