Yes both names sound correct to me


I believe Mike sold his, here is the red/black stripe one on the Mecum site 2011

I believe the Yenko Chevelle that Warren posted is VIN #356640, originally purchased from Marshall Chev in Reading, PA by F. Delewski of Summit Ave, Reading, PA on 5/2/1969. It was last titled in PA to a K. Shelton of Manheim, PA in the mid-late '70's, no DMV records since then.

Very Cool, I actually grew up and lived in Manheim till the mid 90's. And still work there to this day. I pretty much know or knew of every Hot Rod & Muscle car in town still. And this Car dosent ring any bells ! there was a guy by the name of Kenny Shelton around town who was quite a bit older than me. Any idea on K.Shelton's street address ? Could possibly be a Mennonite/Farmer kid from outside town ? they always had Cool Muscle stuff stashed away. Hidden away until Fri/Sat nites

Yes, Kennie Shelton Jr is listed as the last owner, address was only listed as 'Manheim PA' though....

LoL!! I had some old notes, although I don't know who's car / VIN # for that red one that showed up at Carlisle....

[SS427]

Agreed an no one that I have talked to who looked at that car at Carlise wrote the VIN down. Go figure.....

Did you ask Mark Kickel? If he was there he wrote it down, that I’ll guarantee.

Damn and I just saw him last weekend. You are right, he would have.
