Re: LISC by GM ???????????
HawaiianC,
-------Chevrolet,in particular,hired an outside company years ago,to police the use of thier logos,products,images,etc.The companys name is Equity Management Inc.If you ask almost any Chevy parts vendor about them you will find a very large group of disgruntled business owners.
--------One claim,among many, (right or wrong) is that EMI keeps restoration parts reproduction companys from producing substandard items.
--------In the apparel world they police the use of the Chevy logo as well as Chevrolet images.
--------Im not sure what they would have to do with that Yenko emblem.The only thing I can imagine(very remote)would be that the Yenko emblem we all know and love has some very loose resemblance to a Chevrolet emblem.Maybe if you squint real hard or have very bad eyesite!
--------Maybe someone else will have a better theory.............Bill S
------Forgot to mention that the aforementioned EMI takes a percentage of every sale of every piece that comes under its umbrella.They have made a fortune at this.No telling how much has gotten back into Chevrolet and GMs coffers.
