There's plenty of Yenko Honda plates here in PA - put one of them on your Sub!

Not like this one ... an original version from when the Subaru dealership first opened.

The Dormont location was strictly Subarus and used cars. As far as I know the Turbo Z's were done at the Yenko Chevy dealership in McMurray PA.

Its a Yenko Brat with a bra
here are some pics from a box of photos that I think were Frank Yenkos
pictures from over the many years he ran the dealership.
In the 1940s they sold cars and GE appliances
Frank was into antique cars as there are photos of him with a group of cars from 1920s. Frank had a 20s Chevy with a Yenko licence plate frame. There are also pictures of "Yenko" Firetrucks, garabage trucks etc that I guess were trucks purchased through Yenko's
