Another side of Don Yenko
 

My parents are moving to a new smaller house and we have been moving and cleaning out the garage. I found a few items that I had at Dads that I have not seen in a while. The Airplane artwork was done by Larry Shinoda. Another legend in the hobby...I hope you enjoy this seldom seen look..BKH

That's cool Brian! Thanks for sharing. Isn't Shinoda one of the people responsible for the Firebird?

Maybe I'm totally wrong here... but I thought Shidona was the brain behind the cowl hood???

Re: Another side of Don Yenko
 

Love this stuff ! These are awesome pieces. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif I love reading some of the interviews with the late Shinoda...Esp stuff after arriving at Ford after he left GM..I think he said the Ford guys were a bit thick headed...

Cool stuff. Don't know that much about Don Yenko but he was the typical successful businessman: type A with a lot a varied interests and abilities. When most people are sleeping or watching TV, these guys are/were out DOING.
