Whoo-hooo, that's awesome, I've been wanting to see a copy of those ads, thanks Pete!

Now I have a few questions.

1. on the first page, Would the Island Teal car be considered an unconverted car also, to go along with Eddie's green car and the five Corvette Bronze cars? Does anyone know or suspect if this Island Teal car was converted?

2. The 325hp ash gold car, 400 turbo, 140 speedo! Was this a 9737 car?

3. The 425hp, ash gold car, specified as Yenko, 400 turbo. Was this a prototype or experiment? Was this car considered part of the 64 cars?

4. Has anyone noticed or compared the front steering components mentioned in the first paragraph on their cars to reflect this statement. The 1-1/16 stab. bar is known, but has anyone noticed the str. knuckles or pitman arm, etc., to be different or another casting number. Has ANYONE found an 850 carb. installed?, especially a List 3418, 3886091 AN, or possibly a list 4054, 3925519 AN? This is the third Yenko ad i've seen advertising a new 68 Yenko with an 850 carb!

Thanks,
Bryan

The ads weren't always spot on. They advertised deuces with an 800cfm Holley. Not so. The deuce ad also referred to &quot;Corvette&quot; type motor. Which is close to correct other than they were stamped for Z 28's
