  • Yenko Book Review

    This is a great book for gear heads. Covers the beginning of Yenko. Right up to the last cars he produced. Takes a inside look at the man. As well as the cars he produced. Of all the dealers like Nickys, Baldwin Motion, etc. He was the most well know. Thats why his cars command so much money today. And there is so many clones built in his name. Great read with excellent photo coverage!
