Herb Berkman's Yenko Stinger YS-317
Herb's had a lot of fun with his car. It was used for daily transportation from 1972 until around 1988 and by late 1999, had a total of 211,000 miles on the chassis. |
He notes that possibly the only original mechanical parts left in the car are the front and rear sub-frames, the gas tank, the accelerator pedal and the rear portion of the emergency brake cable! Herb does all his own work on the car with the exception of bodywork and paint, which he prefers to leave to the pros. |

Compare the photo above with the one at right, a close-up of the add-on Yenko "sail" panel, which mounts over the aft portion of the rear quarter window. The panels not only change the appearance of the car, giving the Stinger a distinctive roofline, they also clean up the aerodynamics by filling in and smoothing the airflow across the area between the window and the drip molding overhang. The Yenko Stinger decal is positioned as it was on the originals. |
