Bachrodt was a serious performance and Corvette Dealership.

Todd Ocide was the Performance and Corvette Guy there.

He road raced with Don Yenko and was the one of the first to order and receive 1967 Yenko Super Camaros to sell. One was the very first '67 Yenko Camaro constructed. The dealership also sold at least one 1966 Yenko Stinger.

On another historic note, Todd was able to obtain one of the exclusive 1966-L88 Corvette Coupes and campaigned that car under the Bachrodt Banner. </div></div>


Appreciate the info, very cool, especially the part about the association with Don Yenko and Yenko Chevrolet.
