Fathers Lost Yenko Chevelle #358034 Butternut

[Cworkman2]

Actually I've been looking for this car since I've been 9...I'm 39 now. A little back story to clear things up. I am an only child and my father, Carl, the owner of the car, died when I was 6 months old. Due to my mothers health issues she and I were residing with my grandparents in Michigan while my father was stationed at Fort Carson. After his death there was some issue with getting the car back to Michigan, I have the correspondence between the Army and my mother which mentions the car but it is never listed with his effects. There are conflicting arguments on either side in the paperwork.
In my searching I thought it was just another chevelle produced at the time, it wasnt until Jerry Strong contacted me on Facebook and wished to tell me about stories about my father and the car did I find out it's unique origin. Which makes it easier to track. Thus, contacting this group to see if it is still out there. I dont have much in regards of knowing my father, and I could care less about financial gain, but I would like to know if the car is still out there, if it's in a collection and if the owner would be willing to talk to me. If the car has been destroyed, well I will have to accept that this search is over. My fathers mother and brother both passed before I got to know them..my mother was not one to associate with them after his death, so this is sort of a extremely personal journey. It's funny, but since finding out about this car and being contacted by his friends I have learned so much about him and his exploits. I was told that he changed the side emblems on the car to 350 ones so that it looked like a sleeper, but would blast any car down the strip at the time. Thats what I want to know about...I would just like to be able to touch a piece of his history outside of the stories.
