Yenko Authorized Cars

[Chevy454]

We just recently returned from a "treasure hunt" with some more Yenko paperwork.

Included in it is a brief history of Yenko Chevrolet, written by Don himself. In this "essay", dated September 19, 1969, was a paragraph relating to the Jack Douglas cars. Here is what it says, verbatim:

"It should be pointed out that Yenko Sportscars did not have any type of exclusive COPO and that many other dealers have purchased cars similar to the cars purchased by Yenko Sportscars. One Yenko dealer, however (Jack Douglas in Hinsdale, Illinois), after making a direct factory purchase of 22 vehicles identical to those sold him previously by Yenko Sportscars, found it advantageous to purchase YENKO emblems and trim to enhance retailing the merchandise."
