Default Re: Douglass Yenko Emblem Placement

I also agree they should be put back the way they were sold. Until I can find evidence how mine was sold I believe in Yenkos own words they were sold with yenko badges and trim. If he only ment badges he wouldnt have added the trim to the description. If he didnt mean stripes by the trim part what did he mean? The only other evidence we have is the two cars that were original paint that had the stripes, now one that came with just badges. As for mine having stripes it is still possible because moving the stripes up wouldnt affect it at all, the top stripe would have had to be trimmed around the key lock but the back of the stripe where it meets the spoiler gets trimmed any way and is the same thickness all the way down. I know all the owners from present back to 1973 when Richards Corvette in Colarado had it for sale. Hopefully I can find out its History prior to that and find out how it really came. Up to now all evidence leads me to believe it should be striped. I really dont mean to start another long debate but we all have are opinions.
