Default Re: '81 Yenko Turbo Z Stage II

[ QUOTE ]
That is a very cool and significant Yenko,IMHO. I enjoyed that car very much. It will run with many stock Muscle cars of the 1960s-70s. It seems Don leaned that promoting his cars could be a two edged sword at times, so there wasn't much hoopla regarding 1/4 mile times.

There were Turbo development Z28s that were running into the 13 sec 1/4 et range.

I have tracked down another Stage II Turbo Z28, since I had that Car. It is Silver on Black. I have only seen pictures from the original owner and it also had Yenko emblems on the lower fenders, similar to the Yenko Deuce emblems.

The car still exists but the original owner would not tell me who he sold it to? Maybe someone else knows about this car??

Hi Stefano, I remember seeing what was said to be a silver stage II car a while ago, but upon inspection I found it to have T-tops. From my understanding, no Turbo Z's came with sunroofs or T-tops. I think it was on ebay some time ago - I'm trying to locate the info. It was rather beat up as well, lots of missing paint, etc, etc... This vehicle is probably different than the one you are describing - I don't recall the metal deuce emblems on the lower fenders. Did the stage II come with those emblems??
