We are kind of "bummed" we didn't get to make to Chi-town this weekend . We got SWAMPED here at work, and haven't even been by the shop in a week or two. The original plan was to take our Vega, then the plan was for dad to drive up after work Saturday, but then that got shot down, so we worked all weekend. It sounds like it was a great show though!

And we all had Brian where we wanted him..His voice was gone and he could barely talk. Ha...

Sorry I had to miss the show, but, as Rob mentioned, work got in the way. Glad to hear that a "supercar" won the Top Gun award, but not surprising, considering the quality of supercars that I had heard were in attendance. In the future, I think that we will see more and more of these major events wanting us to be a special part of their shows. With all of the media coverage the supercars have received the last couple of years, promoters are starting to realize what we always knew, that the public always has, and always will, want to see these rare musclcars. Glad to hear everyone is looking forward to St. Louis and making plans to attend. I hope to announce some updates on the event within the next couple of weeks. Tom

Hi Tom,I was hoping to meet you and Rob at Chevy/Vette Fest too. It was about the finest bunch of cars and the finest bunch of guys, I have ever been around at a car event. Then throw in the Vettes, of which I also have a keen interest in, it was double the excitement for me. Anxious to see your Nova done; will it be done for the next reunion? Oh by the way I just got a call from Jerry Heasley writer/photographer for speedvision. He had the story on my Nova on www.speedvision.com. He just had a email from the original owner of my car whom claims to have the window sticker for my Nova. I hope this is true, maybe I will have the SS answer from it. I returned the call to Jerry but he wasn't there to answer. Kevin

Here is a link to JerryÃs article on the Yenko Nova.

That is the picture I was referring to when I said it looks like it has an SS grill without the SS emblem.

The show was awesome!!!! I will post some pics when I get them done.

There were 7 '70 Yenko Novas present, and technically all were different colors. The only color missing was Citrus Green, and this is not surprising since only 4 have been found and all are in some state of restoration.

One of the cars was an original paint Sunflower Yellow, 4 speed car with 22k miles and is still with the original owner. Another car was a Cranberry Red, 4 speed with the second lowest miles known - 11k! There was also a Cortez Silver car there with an NOS set of Atlas Mag wheels with correct centercaps!

Definitely a super show, it was good meet a lot of really nice people I had only known through their Yenko.net board names.
