Re: 68 Yenko Barn find
Very exciting! I love these barn find stories. Here is a pic of my original emblems, for what it's worth. I haven't started tearing the car apart yet, but have been busy collecting things for it. I am in talks now with a familiar restorer. And, unless he has my orig hood to trade, he is not getting mine.

Re: 68 Yenko Barn find
Didn't think he could pry it loose from you Dana... for what it's worth the hood will look better Blue than Red anyway!

Re: 68 Yenko Barn find
looks like they're the correct raw potmetal, then painted...Again, no chrome emblems til the 70 stick ons... here's both versions for comparison... the chrome 70 style, painted 68/69 style, and a raw 68/69 style with paint removed. Note the stars on the chrome ones are bigger than the 68/69 versions...There's actually at least 2 different versions of the 70 ones too, with a difference in the shape of the "O". Yeah, I have too much time on my hands.
