Re: Yenko brand reborn?
The only reason I own two Yenko's (aside from Colin finding them for me) is because of this site and the registry of VIN numbers and the wealth of information long time members have about these old cars.
Same for Shelby's without the registry in my opinion they would not have the following they do today so if anyone is going to be involved in a Yenko tribute car it should be the guys that have put in the years to preserve the authenticity and history.
Not to mention the fact they are the only ones to my knowledge who had the respect for Don Yenko to actually ask his surviving Yenko family members for permission to use the Yenko name as opposed to running down and obtaining a trade name and trade mark without the permission of the rightful owners of the Yenko name that being Don's heirs.
