Re: Ed Hedrick Yenko
Ed is currently living in New York state. I had the opportunity to speak with him about two years ago... Very interesting guy. He raced the Camaro in question during 1969 in Stock classes as both a four speed car (which is how it was delivered from Yenko) and an automatic. He sold the car prior to the 1970 season when he got to the opportunity to run a Mopar in Super Stock. He wasn't happy with the situation he ended up in and switched over from racing cars to motorcycles. If I remember correctly, he was NHRA national champion two years and held the longest consecutive national event win streak for NHRA bikes that was only recently broken. I got the impression that he is no longer actively involved in racing.
He does not know where his old car is...
