Birthplace and Date Discrepancies
[edit]According to an Hemmings Motor News article, Henry "Smokey" Yunick "was born in 1924 in what was then bucolic Bucks County, Pennsylvania, on a farm not far from the famed Langhorne Speedway." Quicksilver 19:54, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit]This page calls the pictured Turner car a replica of the '66; this page calls it the real thing from '67. Which is it? TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 23:37, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
