Re: '81 Yenko Turbo Z Stage II
That is a very cool and significant Yenko,IMHO. I enjoyed that car very much. It will run with many stock Muscle cars of the 1960s-70s. It seems Don leaned that promoting his cars could be a two edged sword at times, so there wasn't much hoopla regarding 1/4 mile times.
There were Turbo development Z28s that were running into the 13 sec 1/4 et range.
I have tracked down another Stage II Turbo Z28, since I had that Car. It is Silver on Black. I have only seen pictures from the original owner and it also had Yenko emblems on the lower fenders, similar to the Yenko Deuce emblems.
The car still exists but the original owner would not tell me who he sold it to? Maybe someone else knows about this car??
