Default Re: Yenko Stinger For Sale On eBay

Oh........JoeC, if you look at the Stinger emblem in this auction........that is an original one. Note that the Bee is raised and embossed. It is also not painted black as are the new repros.

Rick, That Stinger emblem in this auction could be a reproduction since the car was repainted. From talking with Ed C. and other Stinger owners, there were two different Stinger decals in 1966. One decal has an embossed Stinger that was used on the Stinger cars and the other has a black Stinger. The one with black Stinger was used by Yenko as a promotion give a way item. I have a box of Yenko items from the Yenko estate sale and it has some of these black Stinger decals. In the box are Yenko checks, recites, parts tags, pencils, and other items from the Yenko Canonsburg address. All these items including the black Stinger decals are originals not reproductions. The decals have a mfg. logo on back which I have not seen on any repros.
