Default yenko's 1967 vette
I was looking for a place to paint my vette , not full paint , but touch-up . By chance , I went to Advanced Auto Body in Bellmore , L.I.
So we're talking , I like what her's saying , and then he says "want to see the most valuable vette?" I say "sure !" . He has Don Yenko's personal 1967 L88 # 8 12 hr of Daytona winner. Awesome car . If you're local , check it out .
