M, there is a Drag Strip in Windgap, Pa. Off route 78 east. Still an 1/8th mile set up and they have a real nice reunion every year. Actually the return road was in the woods. Still looks the same. Its called The Sticks Reunion. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Sorry copo. Maybe I sent the PM to camarojoe. The drag strip is is in Wind Gap, Pa. about a mile off Rt. 33. It's official name is Mt. View Dragway. Vargo, in Perkasie doesn't exist anymore. Every summer (mid to late August) there is a reunion at the old drag strip called The Sticks Reunion. The strip is in relatively good shape since it hasn't been used as a drag strip in probably 25 years. The man in the gold Yenko Camaro was definitely NOT killed. I don't believe he was even hurt. If you saw how the strip is laid out it would be easy to see how you could destroy the car and not get hurt.

Re: Yenko Information
 

O.K. Guys, since I can't figure who I sent the PM to I'll try this again. This all comes from my memory so if I'm off please don't think I'm blowing smoke. As far as I know Karen Chev sold 3 69 Yenko Camaros. Olympic gold, sold to 1 or 2 guys from Allentown, Pa. Fathom green to a local (Easton, Pa.)speed shop owner. Rallye green, sold to a young man from Wilson Boro (Easton) Pa. nicknamed Spike. The gold one was destroyed at 'The Sticks' drag strip. The fathom green was a strip only car. The rallye green car was traded at Continental Motors Easton,Pa. where I worked, on a (Get ready for this one) new Lincoln Mercury Capri. My then fiancee, now ex-wife, and I bought the car on Feb 3rd 1972. I still have the receipts from the deposit and when we picked up the car Feb 10th. when I went in to pick the car up I was corraled in the sales managers office with the owner and sales mgr telling me how much I didn't want to buy that car. They had advertised the car and had 2 or 3 backup deposits on it. After way too much talking I reminded them that I had a signed buyers order and I was indeed taking the car. We lived exactly 2 blocks from the dealership and every morning (for the next 2 weeks anyway) I would walk past the car only to turn around and drive in the opposite direction 13 blocks to the circle in Easton and back up to work. Two weeks later I got fired from that job (I didn't care I had the car) they were really upset about selling me that car. Anyway we had the car a little over a year and bought a house so the car had to go.(Yes I knew it was going to be worth money someday) I sold it to Stout's Auto Sales Reading,Pa. I had no idea it was still around until yesterday. Keith e-mailed me pictures. You have no idea how big the smile on my face was when I saw those pictures. The car looks absolutely beautiful! Maybe some day I'll actually be able to see it again. I know exactly what I'll say. Hello old friend, the years have been very very kind.

Welcome to the site Nazereth...It would be neat if Keith ended up with the spare tire for the car.
