Default Totalled blue Yenko?

I went to 575 West Pike Street yesterday because I heard chatter about it possibly being bought from the biker business to be made into a Yenko museum. While I was there, an older gentleman told me a story about a blue Yenko. He said back in the early 1970's he worked at one of the local junkyards. He got a tow call to pick up a car in an accident in Canonsburg. He said when he got there, the car was wrapped around a telephone pole so bad that it was almost bent in half. He said it was too far gone to salvage, so it went directly into the crusher. He didn't remember what model of Yenko it was, only that it was a blue Yenko. Does anyone have any recollection of this story? I thought it was pretty interesting.
