Jeff,

Your very blessed....you have an awesome family. I enjoyed spending time with you and your Dad.

I too have a Special Favor for Chris Short. Chris can you please extend the Yenko visit in IL. until next summer so You, Jeff and his Dad and the Butternut Yenko can attend my all 1969 Chevelle Party!

Another Great Story from this weekend was...while speaking with Jeff....I happened to ask did your Dad ever meet Jack Douglas (The dealership owner of where he purchased his Yenko Chevelle), Jeff said no they never meet.

The next day (Saturday)....I was walking up to the cars, and there was Jack Douglas admiring the Yenko Chevelle. I was so excited for the Morocco Family, because this is what happened next! I was very honored to introduce the two of them for the very first time in nearly 40 years...WOW!

Priceless!



An "Original Owner" and his "Original Yenko Chevelle"
It just does`nt get any better!



I have a picture of this very same sign...the very first time I saw Nick and his Yenko...at "World of Wheels" in like 1977-79?



To the Morocco Family Congrats on all of your awards!

Dan.

Congrats to the Morocco family. I feel honored to have had my car with theirs. Thanks also for helping me load my car at the end, it was very much appreciated.
I'm glad to have had the time to meet you and hear some great stories.

Jeff, Just happened to be looking at Yenko stuff and ran into these great pics. Had to register finally to tell you how great is to have you guys as friends. I shoulda been on board when the Vega stuff was happening but I was lazy. Now I just had to tell all that the Morocco family is for real and you can't find better people. Say hi to your Mom, Dad, and the little creep for me will ya? Russ

THANK YOU EVERYONE !!!!! im very honored to have you guys as friends on this site! everyone is willing to help each other in some way or another whether it be making signs, lending a hand or even goin for dogs!!! that is what makes all the time , effort , and money all worth it. thanks again for all you guys that came by and had the boys sign cards for you, i think the best part was when a 7 year old boy came up to Dominic and said "hey, youre that kid from the magazine i just got." there must have been 20 kids come over and got his autograph each day. im really glad i had more cards made for this show.

welcome aboard Russ.....what took ya so long geez !!what kind of yenko stuff you lookin at ???

P.S. dominic wanted me to tell everyone that he scored the highest out of all 3 cars on his judging sheet...that little ..............blank !!
