Default Yenko Camaro Owner for 30 Years



… Well, It was 30 Years ago today ( 7/5/88 )

… that I bought my 1969 Yenko Camaro.

… Since I have not attended a large show in quite a few years I thought

… today would be a good day to take it out for a cruise.

… YeeeeHaaaaww !

… Well I probably put about 100 miles on the Yenko the past few days visiting friends and since I am NOT on facebook … a buddy that has a 1955 Chevy informed me that he had seen on facebook that on Saturday they were having the Hilton Village Centennial Celebration which is just a few blocks from where I live
… and he said "Come'on , John bring that car out !"

… I sold him "Well, Since I only bring it out once every 100 years... This may be the perfect time to bring it out and share it with everyone !"

… So on Saturday July 7th, I brought it down to Main Street where they had a small gathering of about 50 to 60 cars displayed for the 100th Year Celebration of Hilton Village.

… Check out this video
