WOW Rick! Congratulations to you and Annie. I've heard it said that the best deals are the ones that come to you. Certainly true in this case. I don't normally open a thread about a Yenko, but I saw your name on it and I knew it had to be a good one.
19,000mi! Just makes my head spin. Good luck with it!

Verne

----Rick,,,Just a few days ago I spotted a V.V.Cooke combo bottle/can opener. The perfect accessory to open up that cold one at the end of the day! The V.V. is a bit worn from use but the Cooke is definetly readable. I think the price was around $10 bucks. I'm sure it wont be going anywhere in the "antique mall" its in so we have time.......Bill S

----I just knew a beer would taste better at the end of a long day if it was opened with a V.V.Cooke bottle opener. Especially when you own a V.V.Cooke Yenko Chevelle!!!!! I actually couldn't believe that I found this bottle opener at one of Jan's antique hang outs. What are the chances that a V.V.Cooke bottle opener would be in a shop full of c##p in Port Huron, MI.???........Bill S

----Thanks go out to both Sam and Jake, and of course my Ontario buddy!
