Yenko dealership building
 

Poor quality, as it was taken from a much smaller photo. I would guess in the early '60s, judging by the cars in the lot. ???

Judging by the Camaros parked in front, I would say this is from 1968. Kind of interesting, we always assoicate Yenko Chevrolet as selling musclecars, but here, right along side of the SS Camaros, are pickups. Could those be "super trucks"? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Might add, it took a lot of arm twsiting to get the estate to release these to me, as they had always been very protective of such pictures. Since acquiring them I have enjoyed sharing them, including in a major muscle car publication (no longer in publication). As far as I know, these are the only two from that era known to exist, at least that have I seen of the outside. I do have a couple of the inside.

Cool pics Tom...have you ever made copies of these ? I think I may have seen one somewhere ?

Re: Yenko dealership building
 

You seen that pic on the COPO?Yenko episode of the American Muscle Car. I actually believe that Tom got credit for the pics and his comentary in the credits of that episode. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Re: Yenko dealership building
 

I would not be surprised that those are ready for conversion 9737 Yenko COPO 68 Camaros. Great picture from your collection Tom, thanks for the post...BKH

I see a little peek of a big ol' white Biscayne in the far right corner too... maybe a 427 2 door sedan? Nah, its probably a 4 door 6 cylinder 3 on the tree, but who knows! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

...Reminds me of this car a buddy of mine sold a few months ago!

I have shared them with a couple of media companys, and this was the picture used for the drawing/poster entitled "Don's Place", by David Synder. Of course, once you let go of one, some folks use it and give you credit, others do not. Same as posting on here, how long till some of them are for sale on Ebay or elsewhere? Oh well, the nature of the beast I guess. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif Enjoy, plenty more to come, plus Yenko documents. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

The Yenko Stinger in the picture is actually YS-001, which was the demonstrator. YS-001 was used in the manuals,articles, and was on the front and rear cover of the Communique'.

Re: Yenko dealership building
 

Ed,
Can you tell me if that Stinger still exists,
I'm a closet Corvair fan & love the Stingers! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Yenko dealership building
 

I own YS-001.

Please let me know if the previous attachment is working. I don't think my network will allow it.

Re: Yenko dealership building
 

Hmm...it's calling the picture correctly, but it's like it didn't upload for some reason? Try it again...
