Red Yenko 1967 Z-28
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			This Z-28 was recently for sale on ebay and didn't sell via the auction.  I contacted the seller and we worked out a deal.  I ran an NCRS report on the car and it came back as a Yenko.  It's a little surprising that no previous owner elected to run a report on it but I'm not complaining!  Charlie Lingenfelter had his red Yenko '67 Z on display at MCACN in 2017 and Bud Gates raced a red '67 Yenko Z-28 Stormer at Sebring.  This is the third red '67 Z from Yenko.  It is documented that Yenko ordered '67 Zs in three colors, Bolero Red, Ermine White, and Marina Blue and three of each color.  I believe this car that I bought is the "Volpe, Pizzi, Rose" drag car that had Yenko sponsorship.  I spoke to Ollie Volpe back in 2011 about the car (he confirmed he bought a red Yenko Z) as I wondered if Lingenfelter's car might be his but it turned out the history of that car was known back to new.  Ollie told me that he scraped the dum-dum (sound deadener) off the inside of the door skins when preparing the car for SS/E.  When I removed the door panel over the weekend I found it all scraped off like Ollie said.  The doors and glass are all dated right for the car.
