Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Having the original owner as well as the original Documents verifying that this Double COPO was indeed sold new as a "Yenko" was a great way to complete the history to date.
The other white Yenko is the very next body # to this one. Milt Robson had discovered the original engine at a local machine shop and title traced the VIN. He found the car under a car port with Yenko designation, but knew nothing about the Douglass history. He decided to restore his car as a Yenko and it wasn't until after he sold it that the current owner became aware of it's history as well.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Posted fees and commissions for Kisssimmee are 10% to the buyer AND 10% to the seller. The auction house collects from both. Some auction quote results with buyers premium and some do not, but most all major collector car auctions contractually collect from both sides.

Re: 1969 White Douglas Yenko
Stefano, I've read from mecum that there is competition between the different auction companies (mecum, B-J, etc.) for the big, crowd drawing high end cars. I hadn't ever thought about it before but it does make sense. So, that being said, would you think it's safe to say that Schmeeckle's huge collection of cars likely were charged less than the routine 10% ?
Just curious as to your thoughts.
