Re: Olympic Gold Yenko
I saw Barrys gold car at Brians shop in early 2002. I immediately fell in love with the car. I saw it before Brian did his work. I Tried 0n 20 different occasions to get Barry to let it go , even before Brian finished it, to no avail. I tried to get it after Brian finished it, it was the car that i always tried to get, but couldn't. I called Barry one last time before i bought the Gold one from Dave Belk. I finally got another Gold one. The 2 will make beautiful bookends. I owned another Gold w/ Black stripe car that needed quite a bit of work and at the time i needed the $$$ for a real estate deal. I am glad i let that one go and got this one. This one has white stripes. To me they are the ultimate yenko. I guess the thrill of the hunt makes it that much more interesting.Barry's is gorgeous, Brian did a great job. I am looking forward to having mine finished, perhaps later this year. The parts are being assembled, we have the correct date coded engine, been media blasted, and is currently underway. I can't wait!

Re: Olympic Gold Yenko
Kevin, there's a pretty extensive post on this car when the seller listed it for sale here. It was initally offered to sYc members at prices from $125K-225K with everybody eventually walking away. Wasn't the car it was....
I think it's a great car and I'm glad you own it with plans to restore it properly. I think we all want to see it ressurected
