10. Best Vintage Little Car – 1969 Stage IV Stinger – Robert Donahugh Even with rare Pentastar iron everywhere, Stunkard, a diehard Mopar guy, gave his 2016 MCACN celebrity pick to the Corvair of Robert Donahugh. A COPO factory build for the suspension, this is the only Stinger built new by Yenko in 1969, and likely the final one created during the Corvair model's production. The car was special-ordered by Goodyear to do 13-inch 130-mph tire testing for Ford of Australia. Since Ford had nothing that fast domestically wearing so small a tire, Yenko's shop built this non-race-lightened Stage IV package for the tire firm under contract, which then successfully completed its mission. Donahugh also had extensive paperwork from Yenko office manager Donna Mae Mims between both Goodyear corporate and the Yenko shop forces. He still races the car on occasion, and towed it in with a 1978 GMC Royale camper that he and his wife travel the country with.
