Marlin says:
I feel that the source of the car is exactly what defines a Yenko. Maybe that statement is what summarizes this whole discussion. I feel the source defines a Yenko, do you feel that the marketing package defines a Yenko?

Marlin,
I'm missing something. So a Nickey ordered and sold elsewhere is still a Nickey, a Harrel ordered and sold elsewhere is still a Harrel, but that's not true for a Yenko.
Yenko was marketing an image and a package. If you walked into Douglass in 69, you'd see a double COPO complete with all the Yenko decals. Sure would look like a Yenko to me, esp since that's what they were selling. People at all the Yenko distributors didn't ask where the car was originally shipped to. They asked 'That a 427? Cool!'

Interesting story about Berger and Douglass. Wow, talk about reaching.


I'm altruistic (at least relative to this topic), but I am really starting to realize this is about $$. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif[/img]
At least I changed the title of the topic.....
