Unknown 1968 Yenko Photo
 
I found these photo's of a 1968 Yenko, origin unknown to me. I thought someone might know what tag number it is. I took these photo's at Memphis Super Chevy in the mid 1990's.

Darrell, I think it was obvious that it had been painted then, and it looks greyish in my photo's. Because of the local history to Memphis, I was wondering if it was 8019 in one of it's stages??

While I was at it, digging out my old photo album, I came across these Yenko photo's taken by me at Indy Super Chevy, somewhere between 1988 and 1994.

Darrell, my eyes are wore out too. The color Sequoia Green is close to that, and that's the color of 8019, and the car was in Memphis in it's earlier life. 8019 was sold from Branine in Kansas. This car may not be 8019, just thought it might be.

Yes that is Jim Park's old car. I just talked to Jim this week. The previous owner of the black '67 was Jerome Shinkay out of Janesville WI. Jim became good friends with Jerome back in the '80s and was offered a few cars from Jerome's large collection, the # 1 Gran Sport Corvette and a '67 red L88 Corvette with low miles, window sticker still on the glass. Jim regrets passing on that opportunity.
