Was at the same show and have pictures of that car as well. There were two othe Yenkos there that year as well as Don Yenko himself. He was checking out a new dealer prepped Camaro from Buegler?sp Chevrolet. The Yellow Nova from ebay looked pretty much the same as it does today even then. This is not the same car. I was told that the owner of the Duece was killed in an accident and his buddies had taken the car to the CC Nationals in his honor...BKH

Pretty amazing story! Brian, do you have any pics of Don at the show, or any pics of the other Yenkos there?

There was a LeMans Blue 69 Camaro there that belonged to NWYenko, and one that was painted black with white stripes. I did not take any pictures of Don Yenko, but I know that I have seen one with Don and the blue car from that day..BKH

I believe Mark Fuss knows who the owner of this car was. He told me of a buddy of his from Wis. that had a SY tunnel rammed deuce. I believe Mark said his friends name was John. He told me his friend was killed and the car was for sale for a long time but he did not know whatever happened to it. If anyone would like more info, give Mark a call, he is listed in the Glendale Az phonebook.

Mark said this car used to belong to his friend John Commick ( I think this is how it is spelled). John was killed and some friends brought it to the CC Nats to try to sell. This car was sold around 1982 and has since disappeared. Has this car been found?
