Default Re: Douglass Yenko Emblem Placement

Right.
The first batch were ordered by Yenko and invoiced to Yenko and delivered to Don in Canonsburg. They were striped, and badged and transported to Jack Douglass in Chicago.

The second batch were ordered by Jack Direct from GM. They were invoiced to Jack Douglass and delivered to Jack Douglass directly,(that's why they are a little different option wise...endura, chambered, trim, etc. etc) They never went to Canonsburg.
They were striped(or not), and badged at the Jack Douglass dealership.
Clint has done some excellent work title wise and has found the original owner of his car.
Clint's vinyl top car was sold badged, but stripeless. It was sold as a Yenko, had a Yenko window sticker and Yenko dollars were paid.
My car was sitting on the showroom floor at the same time and (same color;Daytona Yellow)without the vinyl top.
My car was striped and badged and his friend even test drove it.
Clint's owner picked his car because he didn't care much for the "fancy" stripes!

It would be nice to find one of these Jack Douglass direct ordered Yenko's with a window sticker....or some old vintage photos with the emblem placement.

When Clint started asking his original owner about badge placement he just kind of chuckled and said;"Son, I bought that car cause she had a Yenko 427 in her, and I like yellow!"
Alot can be learned from that.
I will be thinking about that as I powershift from 1st to 2nd!!!!!!!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img]
