Yenko corvette

[bauer]

BKH- Received Limited Edition Fathom Green/Black Strpe 1969 Yenko Comaro model from Supercar Collectiables by UPS today.
Bought it because I remembered the actual car.

JD502 - I do not remember any specific 66 - 67 Chevelles. I was not there at that time.

The above Corvette was in inventory for close to two years and was sold to a customer from another state.

The client who commissioned the Corvette, replaced it with a full size van with a built 350.

Is your first name Bill? Did you work there in the mid 60's leave and then come back there to work? I spoke with the a nice gentleman named bill a few months back, I believe is talking about the same person. When speaking with this person he had told me he worked there until early 67 or 68 then left for a year or two and came back. Anyway he told me he had a 66 or 67 YENKO ("converted")chevelle conv. that Don Yenko drove himself with a L_88 in it. I asked about this before and seemed this had been mentioned before. Just curious about that car I always liked them thanks for the info.

thanks for the info bauer

I Do not know anything about a 66-67 Chevelle Conv. with an L88 installation. Will ask the next time I speak with someone working there at that time. However I am aware of a 67 Corvette Coupe that had one installed by Yenko in 1967 after sugar was dumped in the tank.
