Default Re: Who is Bill Thompson?

On July 29, 1970, Yenko SportsCars published Bulletin #4 which included a locater list for dealers in the network. One of the cars that was listed was a:

"Used 1969 YENKO 427 CAMARO--Huggar Orange Turbo; ready for the strip and used on the street; black vinyl roof; electric fuel pump; special springs; KONI's; $1000-plus spent on engine; AM radio. Yenko Chevrolet, Canonsburg, PA. Bill Thompson 412-745-0100"

This is Yenko's phone #. When Bulletin #5 came out on August 12, 1970 this car was no longer listed, but the other two on the list were still available. One is a '69 427 Camaro still on the lot at Colonial (might be Holub's car), and a '69 427 Nova still on the lot at Stauffer (probably Kevin's car).
