Default Yenko Vette

I was just over on ebay looking at the die cast cars and they have listed with pictures a Baldwin Motion Vette,,, "heard of" But they had a YENKO vette...... Anyone heard of this? I bet this was a screaming SOB.... Got to see a real yenko chevelle last year ,,,, man o man..... The thing was intimidating just to look at

If I remember correctly, Yenko didn't sell any special Corvettes, just Novas, Chevelles, Camaros, and Corvairs. It may be one of the Corvettes that Don Yenko raced though. He raced for quite a few years and I think he only drove Corvettes.

Yenko raced a lot of different vettes. His Chev Dealership was only 5 miles from here. If you think a Chevelle was bad you should see some of his Camaros.
