Yenko/Donna Mae articles

[JoeC]

In the Corsa Communique (magazine) April 1999 and February 2000 there are articles with an interview with Donna Mae Mims. She was a Yenko employee and also raced a pink Corvair Stinger. She now drives a pink Corvette with Marlyin Monroe painted on the hood! She makes some interesting comments about the Yenkos including how people would come down the creek at night in row boats and steal parts off the brand new Yenko Supercars. Here is the web site http://www.corvair.org/

Donna Mae is a friend of mine and we did a Yenko seminar together at a Camaro show a few years ago. I see her from time to time with her Marilyn Monroe vette at the local shows. She is quite an interesting lady. She attended the first reunion and as always was a real treat. On memorial day the 29th there will be a Yenko display of cars and memoribilia at the Canonsburg Shop and Save car cruise that is located on Pike street right beside the old Yenko dealership. This is a all day show and we are trying to get a number of cars and old employee's at the show. We did this a few years ago and it was great. The club president asked us to do it again and we are having a small gathering. It is hard to say how this will work out , but it should be fun.
