I just sent a few e-mails to people that have asked about this Yenko.
The car was in the Westmont/Clarendon Hills area from what I recall. We're just trying to determine where it went to, or if anyone recalls the "Yenko 4" Illinois plate.

Mike,
I did speak to a Neighbor/Friend and fellow Super Car enthusiast regarding your question. He does remember a Daytona Yellow Yenko for sale in Lisle, IL (????). BTW,his Hugger Orange Yenko's plates read: 427 HP ,at that time. |

At the present time, that license plate is no longer on file with Il. SOS. I worked in, and drove the streets of Lisle for over 18 years and never saw a Yenko Camaro, not to say one wasn't in someone's garage. I did know Mike N's brother Dean, though.

Just to elaborate, I never doubted the authenticity of this Yenko, we just wondered what happened to it. It was a VERY nice car. In retrospect, I believe the guy was a little defensive because he really didn't want to sell the car at that time. This was 1981/1982, and we discussed the possibility of these cars skyrocketing in value someday.
I do not recall a Yenko in Lisle, Illinois. The people around this area probably remember the Yenko Deuce parked behind a repair shop in Westmont on Ogden Ave. as well.
