Default Re: Yenko brand reborn? Update

Last night while the sweetheart was shopping I was wasting time cruising what else but the model car section..
Included were a few poor Revell kits...a couple Yenkos, one a '69 Camaro and what was listed as a '69 Yenko Nova also a B/M '70 Chevelle..
What's interesting is the B/M car had a notation that it was produced w/ Joel Rosen licencing or words such as that also one of the Yenkos had a similar note and the other didn't..
All kits were made in China but I wondered if it's true that anyone's being paid for using the Yenko name and if so who would this be also how long has this been the situation?.

But regardless of who's benefited from the above to date and as far as this whole issue and the new Yenko cars also any tradmark debate goes, I'm on the Yenko family and Clarys side 100 percent!.
The Clarys respectfull and passionate ways of carrying the Yenko legacy along have no doubt largely increased its recognition and demand to the point it is today!.
If things need to be tightend up copyright wise to ensure the rights remain w/ the family or whoever they decide to grant rights or pass it on to, I'd hope and expect most here would love to help support this in any ways possible..
