When I restored Dana Hurt's YS8011 I did a lot of research on this. Don did not like to promote the SS so he often times removed the SS emblems on the fenders and painted the gas cap black. There is more to that story that I am not recalling right now but that is what I found. Dana's cap was painted and his SS emblems had been removed during Yenko's conversion and all was verified during the restoration.
