Very cool; anyone else see the Lemans blue 1969 Yenko Chevelle in the video or the C2 Corvette sponsored by Wendy's drive-in? I wonder if that is <span style="text-decoration: underline">the</span> Wendy's of today.

That Yenko Chevelle belong to Ed Montini's cousin I believe. Where are Montini and Rick Neslson, when you need them?

Original owner was Dennis ?. Keith Hutson owned it as well as Otis Chandler.

First picture I took of the car when it raced at North Star. Second photo is when Keith brought it to the sYc reunion in 2001.

Fast Eddie is stuffing mana-gott and making gravy for tomorrow's dinner. SS427 is putting out fires and saving some lives! Both good men!

Awesome stuff and so much to see!
At the 2:55 mark, catch the '67 RS roll up in the nearside lane...then GONE like a gunshot!
