![]() I had the opportunity to buy a RG Yenko years ago at a real good price, in the end I ended up passing on the car. Anyone know what ever happened to this car? |

<span style="font-style: italic">"...reminds me of a Yenko Camaro that I could have bought a while ago. It was a RG car sold from Breese Chev. originally. I even called Ed C. about the car at the time. The car was offered to me for an excellent price, but I passed on the car when I found out some of it's history. Does anyone know what ever happened to that car??..."</span>
In this interesting past thread Marlin notes a RG car as found.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...145&page=2 Can you share the story of what history you learned at the time that made you pass on the car?.

I checked my notes, Bresee sold at least 2 RG Y-Camaros.
One of them is most likely a rebod, I think it was routinely submerged in water due to a leaky basement??? Might have jumbled the details on how the car's condition got to be so bad, but I'm pretty sure about the rebod part. That car was found in NC. The other RG Y-Camaro from Bresee is/was in IL, I don't believe that one had any issues.

That pic is in my collection somewhere...Note the tiger co-pilot. Hard to see in that scan, but it also says "A Yenko Dealer" very small on the door under the Syracuse, NY lettering.

They were a sister race team to Bill Blandings MIMI cars. Paint scheme is the same. Both ran BMS Competition. Blandings cars also had a big stuffed animal in the passenger seat
