The Yenko's just nasty, and I haven't seen *anything* on Mrs. Acme's GSX posted by Larry yet.

Hi Gang
Yep, I'm here, mainly lurkin about between road trips. The Yenko is fresh out of the shop after the "critter incident"  in East TN Memorial Day weekend, and fresh off a win (in primer, no less) at Super Chevy in ATL, Best Big Body 90 & Up.
The wifes "GSX" (pictured above) is going to be "the weapon of choice" for Woodward, since the Yenko was there last year. I'm desperately trying to get the Riv console in her wagon, along with true dual exhaust and some other little "tricks" I have up my sleeve. 
And yes, I still have the 68 Panel.  Currently its in about 20 zillion pieces, getting a complete frame off rebuild/rotisserie restoration. Acres of new sheet metal, glass, fenders, doors, bushings, you name it. There is a "all star cast" helping on the Panel. A "really big" small block is being built, too.  This is gonna be a "long term" project.
As far as nominations goes, I'd love to hear Pats' "RatMaster" story, but there are many wagons (and wagon owners) with great stories that need to be shared!
Larry

Ok Pat
Once again, I'm "late to the dance". I didnt know you had already posted. It kinda helps if one stays awake while lurking, unlike me who falls asleep at my laptop from time to time.

| Hi Gang Heres pics of my fleet at this time. I use the "Yenko" as my "road unit" going to shows all over the eastern US promoting the Turkey Run & The Spring Show @ Daytona Intl Speedway. The Buick "GSX" RMW is the wifes toy, so we can have "hiz n herz" wagons. "HER GSX" (thats her licence plate) will be the 'weapon of choice" to go to woodward in August. The '68 Panel, when its finished, will be my "new" road unit to take to shows. The OCC that I made into a "Hurst/Olds" now belongs to someone who works for us at shows., And finally, the 94 Burb is my daily driver/beater. Larry My "toy", '92 Chevy "Yenko Impala SS" Wagon, also the car I use for our Car Show Promotions...  My wife's "toy", 92 RMW "GSX" still under construction  My '94 Suburban, Dropped 3/5, my daily driver  '91 OCC converted into a "Hurst/Olds" wagon, sold last summer  My '68 C10 Suburban Panel, this is the last pic of it in one drivable piece. Its now in zillions of pieces gettin a "Overhaulin"

| Outstanding! I knew you had the wagons, but i think that's the first time I saw them all together. I love the contrasting paint jobs on your Yenko wagon and your wife's GSX wagon. and you did a great job on the Olds too! |
