I never saw that either...cool!
around that time I took my Chevelle to a car show at the new Yenko building on rt19,they put myself and others inside the service bay.
behind my car on a bench was a big box with a complete Yenko turbo kit inside.
thought about how easy it would have been in those days to just kinda slide it across and into my trunk..lol.
if you have ever seen the pic with a yellow Yenko Chevelle parked on a trailer under the new sign I believe it was taken that day.

That is a great shot of the '69 under the sign.

My dad was an insurance adjuster in the late 60's through the 90's in Pittsburgh and spent many days at a lot of the dealerships around the Pittsburgh area as many of the dealers had insurance claim offices in them. I used to go into dealers and body shops and when I mentioned who my dad was, they always responded, "Oh, you're Butch's son" which was just a pretty cool thing that they remembered him.

My sister bought her 1982 Camaro Berlinetta new at that dealer location after it was changed to Sun Chevrolet.
