In following the journey and his devotion to Chevrolet, both on the track & working with some active dealerships, many names appear that can be associated with “Mr. Chevrolet.”
The clipping in this thread largely involves a time, information, and names that can be associated while in St. Louis. |

'Yenko Super Camaro Dealers' and Dick Harrell received a lot of exposure in 1967 when DH did a one wheel - wheel stand and it was all over the magazines and news papers including on covers.
It was also in "Drag Racing Photo Greats" as one of the top photos, back in the day |

In Dick Harrell’s invoices to Don Yenko, they had a heading of “Harrell and Sanders Automotive.”
In the early going of the 409-427 era researching of the ties between Harrell & Sanders, both of these men were highly competitive in the Southwest region being present in the winners circle as drag racers of the 409-Z-11 competition era. Frank Sanders was creator and owner of S&S headers. He was the person who is credited for campaigning a Z-11 first to top the 120 mph plateau. |
