That car shows well for being restored over twenty years ago. Saw it in person in Indy and looks like I’ll see it again in Kissimmee.

Dana's cap was painted and his SS emblems had been removed during Yenko's conversion and all was verified during the restoration.

Rick,
When I saw Dana's car that you restored I can say without a doubt that was the nicest Camaro I have ever seen. Dana had the car on a rack and it was just as perfect on the underside as all other parts of the car.
