The Supercar Registry - Dealer Emblems

Frank
I know a Mechanic who worked at Bill Jacobs back then.I will ask him about the Yenko network..

Jeff
Does that DH emblem on Kevins Camaro have a painted on Grey background,or is that background physically part of the DH emblem itself?
On the 1970 DH Camaro,this same embem has a Yellow outline painted on the car itself behind the emblem.

Re: Dealer Emblems

The white is painted on background under the emblem. I had the sad task of doing the inspection of this car this past Aug, [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] I have to figure out how to get a test drive section put into the inspection sheets from now on [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif[/img]

I had first said the area was Grey but it is white sorry for the wrong color info.

Re: Dealer Emblems

Thank You Jeff.

Frank
I talked to my friend who worked as a Bill Jacobs Mechanic.He says Bill Sr. was not promoting the Yenko/SuperCars cars as heavily as he was his own cars.It was never really his Forte.
As stated earlier,just because you were a Dealer in the Network,didn't always mean you sold a Yenko Prepared car.
My Friend does not remember any Yenkos being solid from Bill Jacobs Chevrolet,but he does remember seeing some ads showing them in the network back then,as has been shown recently here.Again no solid proof,just him going by his memories.
It wasn't until Bill Jacobs Jr. took over in 1978,that they really added more performance orientated cars...

Re: Dealer Emblems

That is kind of the info that I got as well. I will still try though.
