Re: ATTN: Cathleen (re: body kits)
Cameron, I will try to e-mail you off line. Yes, I had my headlight washer system installed by my CEC dealer.<br>However, I am associated with this group (my car is the project car) and as I would be spamming because they do not YET advertise on A4.org so I will obey the rules.<br>So, if you do not get my e-mail (our server was not working well yesterday), please post to let me know by the end of today and I will try from a different computer/location tonight.<br>-Cathleen

Is the Yenko that John is talking about...
the same guy that sold barely street-legal drag cars in the late sixties? Yenko-prepped Camaros and Novas are highly desirable collector cars. He'd take a stock car right from the factory, usually with radio-delete and A/C-delete options, strip it down and drop in high-po big block motor. Then he'd add custom interior and paint and sell it for a few points more than a fully-equipped model.<p>Ahhh, to be on Woodward Ave. in mid-1970...<p>

Re: Is the Yenko that John is talking about...
Don Yenko - built alot of strange stuff, including "Yenko Stingers", which were roadrace Corvairs. There still are lots of'em around, and they show up all over the place - vintage events, SCCA regionals, there was even one at Mid-Ohio for the Run-Off's this weekend...<p>I just happen to like strange race cars. Peugeots in IMSA Firehawk ? I'm your man...<br>
