Here is a pic of a Daytona Yellow Yenko Chevelle with a vinyl top on the Yenko carrier truck. I don't know where this car is, or to which dealership this truck was headed. Brian??

I believe that load went to Colonial Chevy in Va.

Any idea how many Yenkos were sold from Colonial?

I think that the cars in question may be enroute to WI. dealers. Didn't Tony T say that Yenko told him that was his car on the truck? or is that another picture I have?..BKH

There were some pictures of that truck parked at Colonial but not sure if it is the same load. I heard somewhere that this car carrier rig was so heavy that when they were driving around dropping off the cars they would sometimes come to a bridge where the truck was over the weight limit. Then they would park the truck, unload the Yenkos and drive them the rest of the way to the dealership. Sounds like fun.

Brian;
I am not sure which photo Tony T. was referring to, but maybe we can compare this pic to the Colonial pic in MCR 4/87 to see the car layout is the same??
