My boss while I was in college had bought a '67 Yenko Camaro off the showroom floor when he got
out of the Air Force. He turned it into a automatic stick dragster. When he realized in the 80's what

it. He took it out about twice a year to blow out the cobwebs and took me out in it one time. I have
never been kicked so hard by a car in my life.
