Many times drag cars sat on the showroom floor in the days prior to an upcoming drag racing event. The Nova could have been loaned to Braeger (or dealer traded) to drum up hi-po muscle car sales.
Humphrey Chev in Milwaukee also sold a lot of Corvettes and performance cars. They had a Yenko franchise for 1967. Closed and razed in the early '70s.
