Default Re: 1966 Yenko Stinger for sale

Joe,
I couldn't agree with your post any more. Where we differ in opinion is that Jack Douglass was a positive part of that history, especially since he was familiar with Yenko and his exploits as a United States automobile Manufacturer and racer from the roadrace courses, where they both spent time.

The only reason the racing Stingers and Shelbys were painted white up to including 1966 is that those were the colors designated for the United States Mfgs.,like Green for the British cars and Red for the Italian Mfgs.

The L72 Iron block Super Cars are that which evolved from the efforts, ideas as well as passions of Don Yenko, just like the 428 Cobra Jet Shelby Mustangs were the eventual evolution of the first Shelby hand built race cars.

Great post!
