I got an email from Donnie...which has pics of Jerry's Yenko.

Two really cool things about the pics....they were taken by our own Rick Nelson (SS427)at Super Chevy in 1983...and the other cool thing is that another member here, Bill Stephenson (Oldredalert)is the guy that is taking a pic of the Yenko...with no shirt on!

Les, here you go...and enjoy!

-----Man,,,This pic just seems to follow me around. Isnt there a way to destroy a picture on the internet??? Hey,,,It was a hot day and, as you can tell, I was only an amateur "beer taster" then. I only say this as I just noticed Donnies listed profession in his bio. Donnie,,,I have since turned pro as well.
-----I wonder if anyone remembers the LS5 1970 Chevelle convertable I had there that weekend. It was silver with white stripes and black gut and just about every option available, and I had 8 inch knock-offs and goodyear NCTs on it. Sorry for the minor hijack........Bill S

You know - it's interesting! These pictures of the 427
engine don't show any overspray on the intake or exhaust
manifolds. Now on the waterpump bypass hose for that matter.

Do we know if this engine was rebuilt prior to these pictures
being taken? I'd just like to know more........

Not to be critical of the engine bay shots. but the car has been detailed under the hood clearly. Look at the booster painted black, phosphating has been painted over, and the use of many silver plated bolts. I have inspected this car and it is a great car, but like most cars of that era, it had some amature detailing. At one point a few years ago we were asked to re-detail this car. We never did...BKH
