An old invoice from a deal back in '55 was framed and hanging on the wall. Unfortunately that's the only stitch of old paperwork Colonial has. The sales manager told me they keep records around 7-9 years and that's about it. Nothing remains of the Yenko cars.

Just one. The folks at Colonial were kind enough to dig one out of the old used car lot's NOS inventory. I could only talk 'em out of one...so now all I need is a Colonial sold Yenko car to stick it on.
