Default Re: Yenko Backyard

From the mid-60's through the early 70's Yenko Chevrolet was advertised as "Washington County's Largest Volume Corvette Dealer" and there are still a few Yenko sold mid-70's 'Vettes in the Pittsburgh area. It seems Yenko sold lots of base model pickups and utilty type vehicles as well, as the local blue collar Pittsburgh area demographic created a strong demand for these. CamaroJoe's got a letter from GM thanking Yenko Chevrolet for their continued success in moving large volumes of Chevrolet trucks lying around somewhere.
