Default Re: 1966 Yenko Stinger for sale

Rick,
Yes, they were all paying a Royalty or Fee on the sale of each of those cars to Yenko Sports Cars, Inc. It was built into the price of the Super Car. It was a substantial premium and I would suspect that Don did everything he could to protect this Royalty or Fee.

The Douglass Situation is unique,... repeat unique. He was the only dealer in the Network which ordered the COPOs direct and then sold them to the public as Yenkos.

While the Fee situation may help some rationalize whether the cars are Yenkos or not, I feel it only goes to support the arrangement between Yenko/Douglass.

The conumer and and ultimate purchaser of the Douglass Yenko knew nothing of this arrangement and in turn it had no bearing on their purchase decision.

JoeC,
To say that the Douglass Yenkos are similar to ,or the same as a home built replica out of someones garage is well......(no further reply on that comment).
