Frank this was a car Yenko ordered and Douglass sold. If I remember right it was a early car Jan or Feb. This car was for sale in the mid 90s at the Chevelle nats in Schaumburg. I bought the engine from Eddie at Gary Brown it had been blown and had a sleeve put in it.

Belair I think your wrong I think Gary Brown was around until early 80s and Eddie work there even a little longer. If I remember right he built that green Monte Carlos called the incredible hulk that ran 9.60s in the 80s. I know Eddie was there in 86 when I bought that motor.
