I don't know if this is the correct place to post this but I thought some might like to see these photos. I worked at Jack Douglass Chevrolet for 7 years and did find some memorabilia I saved. I saw a nice1969 yellow Yenko at MCACN that had a dealer sticker on the valve cover and told the owner’s friend that the sticker was wrong for a 1969 and I had the correct script sticker. I never did hook up with the owner and now I can't find it but it will show up.
The bow tie sticker below with Hinsdale on it we started using in the mid 70's I believe. The key fob I think is cool, the style looks older but we must have started with those after 1968.
The misc stickers seem kind of an odd marketing idea that Chevrolet sent us. &quot;Belt your wife &amp; kids,” they wouldn't say that today.
The last picture is my plate off my 1969 yellow Yenko that I sold in 1984. There have been a couple posts mentioning my car or possibly me so I thought I would reply. It was an original engine, trans, &amp; diff car that had only the rear original Yenko emblem remaining on it. A local parts guy Barry Hampton &amp; I had the emblems reproduced in Japan, I think. We ordered maybe 500 of them I have 3 left, wasn’t a great seller in early 80s. My car did not have hood stripe, side stripes, or headrest logos. I did put Yenko side stripes on it when I restored it. We also found the holes in the fenders for the front emblems below the centerline and put those emblems on. I don’t know if this was a Jack Douglass delivered car or not we just assumed it was. I will have to search a little harder for any pictures,slides and the currant owner any let you know what I find.
Merry Christmas to all. George

----Hey George,,,Welcome to the sight!
----For the rest of you guys, George and I worked together at Classic Motors as well. He has an extremely nice Shadow Gray LS5 Chevelle that was at MCACN in 2011 that took him a while to put together, but was well worth the wait. I hope he finds time to spend here as George is a wealth of great info, especially about Jack D. and hes just an all around good guy.
----Post some pics of your ride when you get a chance, George.......Bill S

Hmmmmm......I bought many reproduction Chevrolet stickers/decals from a &quot;Hamptons&quot; back here during 1982-83,when I was restoring my 1972 SS Chevelle.He had a running classified ad in the back of the NCOA issues and had a small mail order store set up down the street here on the corner of Ogden &amp; Fairview,in Downers Grove Il.
