Re: 1969 Douglas Yenkos
Yenko was also installing SW Tachs and Hurst Duel Gate shifters on certain cars. Not sure if Douglas did.
Yenko used this statement on his official letters
"THE LEADING U.S. PRODUCER OF HI-PERFORMANCE CHEVROLET BASED VEHICLES"
Now you can say it is a "self appointed" manufacturer title but he was recognized as by the organizations I previously mentioned. That is documented.
I have tried to keep my posts clean but the Mecum ad really bothers me. It is supposed to be changed but has not. I still have not figured out who they are referring to as the "C.O.P.O Yenko Registry" that calls it a "true Yenko". I emailed Mecum but as yet received no reply.
