Default Found Mint Yenko USA 1 License Plate!!

So i found this on my nova I just got and didn't even realize what I had until someone told me how extremely rare this plate is. It is the 1969 one that says " Putting you first keeps us first". I have found that it is rare but have not found any idea of it's value. Anyone have any idea? It is an original and in near flawless condition.

Welcome and congrats on the find. You'll know for sure what it's worth when your auction ends. Sadly, I doubt I'll be the one with deep enough pockets to be the high bidder.

Putting you first .... keeps us first

By the way, how about filling out more of your profile so we'll at least know your first name.

Yes listing is up, just didn't know if there were rules against posting the listing in a forum. Didn't want to step on any toes [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

It's a general Chevrolet ad campaign plate,not a &quot;Yenko&quot; license plate.Used on ALL vehicles,even trucks.
Why would you title it as such?

Because in the research I did on multiple forums that is what I was told and found on other threads and listings, as well as by the original purchaser of the plate.

Even the listing you linked to on this thread lists it as such?

And I think he has been mislead as well.I asked that seller the same question,with no response back.
My point is,other then trying to attract Yenko owners to buy an item,there's nothing that makes it Yenko specific.
