Re: Unrestored 1969 Yenko Camaro at Mecum
All types of cars are sent to the registry, not just supercars. The majority of the info we receive, little, if anything is done, it is simply added to a file with other such cars. A few of them, such as ones new to the registry, we may do a follow up email, requesting more info, inviting them to the SCR, etc. Through the registry is how we know approximately how many supercars exist today.
For several years we had our lists up for all to see, but to be perfectly honest, it became too much of a PITA. Seems like weekly we were involved in some sort of heated discussion, at times getting personal, so we decided to go another route.
Requesting info on certain cars, what we provide, how we handle it, varies, depending on the car, the current owner, who is making the request and why. We do it both verbally and by email, and the majority of time, done in confidence.
To date we have never charged a fee, even for non paying members, for our services, though donations are accepted and appreciated.
Our goal 14 years ago was to promote and preserve the supercars, and I think we have done a pretty good job of it. And I say WE, as there have been many loyal members who have contributed to this success, not for gain, but for the good of the club and hobby.
