Wherabouts/story of 80's built Yenko Pro Streeter?

[Rat_Pack]

I found the article I was thinking about and it was in Cars Illustrated in March 1987. The car was originally a drag car and was rusted out so the owner to the cheap way out and kept it as a drag car. The stripes were painted on and do not have the Yenko lettering on the 1/4's. There are not any emblems on the car (no pics of the tailpanel) so you cannot really identify it. The owners name was Michael Roberts of Mechanicsville VA. Anyone know if it was real? I cannot post pictures but can email them to someone that can................RatPack.................

Not sure of contact info. The cars is tubbed out and a street race car. On the gas, I have seen it run in the 8's in the quarter mile on street tires. I also herd it was a real Yenko car, but you know how the he said she said goes. I don't have any pics of it either. The last time I saw it it was yellow with some weird rainbow colored stripes on the side. Just my $2.

Ugh, I'm going to have to go back through my "archives" I think. The one I remember definately had Yenko emblems and was a streeter, not a drag car. It sticks (burns?) in my mind because it didn't sound like it was tubbed before the "restoration". I'll update if I find it out there in the musty boxes of the garage....
