For the people who don't want a new Yenko, it's simple don't buy one. The Yenko family is behind the project that Tom and his group are doing. That is validation enough for me.

If there was a real yenko from Don being offered, I would think many would buy them, but that can never happen. If you are " validated " from this endevor By all meands buy the car and enjoy same

Default Re: Yenko brand reborn?

The only reason I own two Yenko's (aside from Colin finding them for me) is because of this site and the registry of VIN numbers and the wealth of information long time members have about these old cars.

Same for Shelby's without the registry in my opinion they would not have the following they do today so if anyone is going to be involved in a Yenko tribute car it should be the guys that have put in the years to preserve the authenticity and history.

Not to mention the fact they are the only ones to my knowledge who had the respect for Don Yenko to actually ask his surviving Yenko family members for permission to use the Yenko name as opposed to running down and obtaining a trade name and trade mark without the permission of the rightful owners of the Yenko name that being Don's heirs.

What muscle car/s do you own now. Have you ever owned a 67, 68,69, 70, or 80 Yenko.
This car is a tribute to Don period, and that is what this site and members are all about. The SYC people behind this project have the passion, desire and knowledge to produce a fantastic car. To condemn this project is way out of line.
