Default Yanko Clone on Ebay

Anyone looking for a nice YANKO clone? The seller can't make up his mind how he wants to spell it, Yanko, Yenco or Yenko. He uses all 3 versions. He also claims it is a real COPO car with the window sticker. The best I can figure is a YANKO must be the factory air conditioned version of a Yenko .

Yes - I do believe when you ordered an Yenko with air conditioning the "e" was changed to an "a" which stood for air condition.....Ha.. ....there's no link to any car for sale....is this on ebay???...

I know a drummer named Yanko in my town. Maybe he's a famous muscle car builder and I never knew? He he. He might actually be helping me get my 67' RS Conv. cherried out. Then I can put a 427 in it and say it's a genuine 'Yanko' convertible! Whoohoo, big bucks!! :-)

I like the DUST blue paint does that mean that it was painted at Maaco? or Earl Schieb?

People these days think a stripe kit is all ya need to say you have a Yenko. I wish it was more difficult than that, it kinda saturates the market visually. So there is less POP when you see a real one. Unless its a full treatment clone, I wish they would vaporize. Respectfully, JMO.
