2010 Yenko/SC Camaro

[Les Quam]

One final comment. The term trade name and trade mark do not refer to the same license or property right and I have sometimes referred to them like they are the same(my bad).

For example Coca Cola has a logo which is protected by a trade mark. Coca Cola also has a trade name property right known as Coca Cola and does business under I assume another name Coca Cola Bottling or something like that which is also a property right. They also have an intellectual property right to their recipe for the cola.

I return you now to your regularly scheduled program.

I can give two sh!ts about who owns the name "Yenko" and its making my head hurt, but one of these 2010 camaros named after a dead guy is like going to see Elvis in concert next week???? Yenko was awesome and a true car guy but using his name to sell cars is crazy and disrespectful. Just my two cents, carry on???

It can also be looked upon as a tribute to Don Yenko.

Which is exactly what Dale Earnahrdt's Intimidator SS's were-a tribute to his good freind. Commissioned and partnered with GM,trademarked by him, and sold through his chevrolet dealership.

It's all good

That would be fine if you did a tribute to Don and the Yenko Family and all the profit earned should go to charity instead of the pockets of people trying to sell cars with his name. Im done, carry on!!! Mark

Lets refocus this thread on its original intent, the car itself. What unique features, availability and pricing. Possibly a member has an idea for an option. If you are not interested that's fine but this threads intent was to enlighten those that may be interested in finding out more about the proposed 5th generation Yenko.

FWIW I am not in anyway involved in this project, but find the negativity of some of the post disturbing.

Mark, You know what I have been thru with my car!! Hell my car is real!!! I don't get where your coming from.

A portion of profits should go to the family for name sake. Also, what about all the yenko items? They should own the trademark. 2 cent, cousin of 50 cent.

I don't think Shelby can die I think he will just keep installing reproduction body parts and live forever. He is already the longest living heart transplant survivor in history. His new CEO Amy Boylan hired an expert and cleaned up all his trade mark and trade name issue's. Those rights will pass to his assigns and there will be no problems if Ole Shel ever passes.

In regard to the 2010 Yenko it sounds to me like a great idea and will be a great tribute to Yenko and introduce a lot of young people to the original cars and their legacy.

The sYc would like nothing better then to see a portion of any item sold that is related to Yenko built/sold cars, past and present, go to family members and/or a charity of their choice.
