Re: who owns the rights to the "Yenko" name?
It would be great to see a new Yenko Camaro or Corvette but, the car would have to have the right "pedigree" meaning it would have to have multiple ties to the original cars. A car prepped in Cannonsburg, MacMurry, or built with the supervision of Kim Mason would be some starting ideas. A car built somewhere else in the country and delivered to thru a dealer that has, or had NO ties to Yenko Chevrolet or the original dealer network would be an example of something that we do not need. Berger's new line of cars is an example of cars WITH pedigree, they are delivered to Berger and prepped by an outside supplier but final prep and delivery are handled by Berger. I think that this makes the cars legit. An example of what we don't need is a Yenko Camaro that is built in a state having no ties to the original progam and delivered by a dealer having NO original ties to the real deal. It takes more than stickers to make a Yenko, the car has to follow some of the original criteria.
