Default Canonsburg employees

Does anyone know who worked in the service garage circa 67-71? I recently purchased a piece of dealer memerobilia ,from the garage,that belonged to a mechanic named Jim B.I know the piece is legit,but I would like to complete/confirm the history to go with it.I guess all I'm really looking for is a match for the last name........Thanks.....

Steve

Wow is this an old thread.....Joe I spoke with Warren at SCR 7 when we were looking at your photos.You may remember my question on the Yenko clock I bought.It was hung in the service garage to use for Flat Rate calculations for service.When the clock broke,quit running,it was taken down and saved by Baur(SP) because he was used to looking at it.He must have been a pack rat.....

Yes i remember now Steve, I just saw the thread last night and didn't notice it was from 1992... I recall someone with that last name was on a piece of Yenko literature I had at SCR, wasn't it?

Not to much special about it other than the history. It does have the genuine decal,easy to spot if you know what they look like.The decals are nothing like the repops.Don covered everything with them....
