I am trying to locate the following gentlemen who may have had some knowledge of Don Yenko's dealership in the 70s. Does anyone know how I can contact them? Jack McCormick and Jim Phillips were at one time in the area where Yenko's shop was located (Cannonsburg, PA). Jack McCormick worked at Western Area Vo-Tech in the past. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Rex

Re: Looking for ?????
Rex, Since we were having email problems today let me say here that I do not know of the above two men. Never spent any time at Yenko's in the olden days although I did spend a lot of time wih Don at my Pub. Don was a big time jazz fan. During the winter months I had jazz sessions and Don Yenko hardly ever missed a Saturday afternoon gig as he called them. He brought me a lot of Corvette parts too. I remember telling him that my 63 rad was leaking big time. I said Don they are discontinued what am I gonna do. He said to me that he might have 3 or 4 in the attic and would bring me one in about two weeks. I said that would be great. Well he bought me one dated 76 something and until recently when we got one of Tom DeWitts radiators Don's was in my car for many years. We traded food and booze for the spring. But we never talked much about racing. That was an old subject that wasn't of interest at the time like it is today. Wish I had asked more questions but I respected his privacy as he came to my joint to get away. He was a super guy. Always a gentleman. John- Top
