That is just plain stupid in my opinion but fame does strange things to people. Don't they realize that every time people mention their fathers name we are bringing recognition to that name and what it stands for? I can see if someone were using the name to make and sell shirts, hats, pictures, etc which may be considered profiting without consent but not for an ebay add. Look how much recognition Don Yenko gets from people. Imagine if this were to happen there and we all had to take Yenko off of our trailers, etc. I consider this free advertising to the family not profitting from it. I am proud to wear the Gibb/Harrell/Yenko name on trailers, my store front door, etc. If some of them don't want the free advertising that can be arranged as I am CERTAINLY not profitting from it!

It is really sad what this hobby has done to some people. Gone are the days when we were all in this together. What a waste! </div></div>
Ya, What he said! Another sad day for the hobby!
