Re: 2010 Yenko/SC Camaro
In the past the Yenko site has be-grudged Jim Barber for creating the 1969 Yenko Continuation Cars and yet this 2010 Yenko Camaro project is welcomed. Some of the comments from previous threads have been, “It’s only a Yenko if built by Don Yenko or at Yenko Chevrolet" So why is this project any different? Is this project being backed by GM? Has the Yenko name been licensed by the builders? Do you have permission to use the Yenko name? I also know that in the past the argument has been that the 1969 Yenko Continuation Cars body parts were stamped in Taiwan and this somehow was frowned upon. Does that mean that if Jim Barber went out and found a GM 1969 Camaro body and called it a Yenko that now the 1969 Yenko Continuation Car would receive the same warm response as the new 2010 Yenko? By the way Jim Barber did have permission to use the Yenko name. It seems to me it’s only a good idea to use the Yenko name if the idea stems from this site or if you are high ranking member of this site. Just my opinion!
