Default Mecum auction Oct. 2005

Are they auctioning of ( 5 ) Yenkos from the same collection....all to one bidder?
"This offering of one of each year and model from the Keith Hutson collection is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "

"Originally delivered with American Torq thrust rims"......whats up with that?? I thought Yenko Cast his own version(Knock off) of those rims. Is this True or are they incorrect?

Nope your right 12bolt. They were made by a local manufacturer called Atlas Inc.
The wheels were called Atlas Wheels. From what I have learned here, the wheels were made very poorly.

Thanks for your thoughts, If I could afford that many lottery tickets to win that much money I would be ok...no chance of that. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.......... .....Kasey
