Thanks Pete for bringing my little bit of YENKO history back to life.
You're welcome Dave Dykstra, I enjoyed writing my short episodes and as you can tell even though the stories were about my experiences with the Yenko, they are really about my Dad and what a great guy he was. Last year, I was contacted by a fellow Registry member that thought he had found my Yenko about 60-70 miles from where I live. A widow has it and it is in a locked garage, so it took a while for him to get a look at this car since he had to go through a third party that knows this lady. It was a drag car that hasn't been raced in a while and he did get some pictures, but the VIN plate was missing and he wasn't able to get a look at the hidden VIN. This was also when COVID was really kicking into high gear, so I don't know if he was ever able to get back to take another look or not. I hope everyone is doing well and please stay safe.....

Hi Everyone, long time not being on this site. No word on my old Yenko, but I thought I would let you all know that I have posted my 1970 Baldwin Motion Clone Camaro for sale on the Muscle car section.
Thanks, GM |
