at the '86 Super Chevy Show at Indy, a guy came up to me and asked if i wanted to be in a magazine...of course i said yes. they took a few cars down to the end of the track and did the photo shoot. here are couple of the other cars that were there.

I remember THIS car!

Either I met Mark, years back, or the new owner of the car.

That '55 has some serious engine setback! I remember it back in the Eighties but didn't realize the engine was SO FAR back. I love it! I imagine the hood scoop is probably empty. I made it to EVERY Super Chevy Indy event back in the Eighties and remember looking at the unrestored '69 Yenko that is the main subject of this thread. I really like that Butternut Yellow Yenko and spent a lot of time looking at the car. It was great seeing the car still doing what it was built to do for it's entire life!
