Supercar Photographs

#196 This is N184972 and YS601 and is one of the early Yenko Stompers that was built from an SS350 car. There are four Stompers listed in the registry, but at far as I know only this car and YS604 are known to still exist. They are both 02E cars. Once the big blocks came out Don started using those and numbered them beginning with YS701. They are all 05C and later cars. This car was purchased new at Lou Bachrodt Chevrolet in Rockford IL by Joe Higgins Sr. This car is documented with its original POP, invoice and window sticker. It is a 15K mile car and still has its original transplant block as well. This car was featured in the September '10 issue of Muscle Car Review. At that time it was owned by the original owner's son and was unrestored with an older repaint. It was at MCACN in '12 as part of the large Yenko display that year. It has since been purchased by P. Mitchell and restored by Level One Restorations and was a Premier Unveiling at MCACN this year.

Thanks for posting the pics, Myron.


So this is the one that Brian Henderson, Joe Sweezey and I went to look at here in AZ in the original owners son's garage in Surprise? Neat to see it restored...
