<font color="green">"I purchased it from a fellow SYC member in October '04. It's Fathom Green, black vinyl top, 4 speed, with fresh paint and a driveline rebuild. The 427 runs fantastic. Instant response, great idle, very dependable and goes like hell! The photos reflect the condition of the car when I got it. At this point I'm installing the correct tach and gauge setup, adding a few underhood decals and putting a trunk kit together (jack, spare, etc.) The purchase included the original paperwork on the car from Yenko Chevrolet, which is always a good thing!"

"With the Michigan winter, I haven't had the opportunity to spend a lot of time behind the wheel, but that's gonna change in a couple of months! Plans include spending some time at Milan Dragway to wring it out a little bit, once the weather breaks!"

I'm diggin' the part about taking it to Milan and run it through it's paces...to get ready for the racing at SCR8 of course, right Pat?!

[MosportGreen66]

[Belair62]

Looks beautiful pat...very nice.

Nice car... Fathom Green is one of my favorite 69 colors.

Like it with the vinyl top. Hint: Paint the D-spokes Argent Silver. It'll make them stand out from all the other gray-painted D's out there.

Beautiful...simply beautiful!

[Pat O'Connell]

I really appreciate the compliments from everyone about the Yenko...And wanted to add my thanks to the club as a whole. Not only did I find the car here, but also have gotten a lot of technical advice and other information. Here's to all of you! And Rob...Got the info about SCR8, I'm planning on it!
