What is up with the 63 Z06 Corvette race car that was converted to 396? sold for 81K and was said to be a Don Yenko race car. It at one time was painted gold and was a Grand Sport look a like called the golden goose? They showed some paper on it they said were SCCA log books.

Copo Chevelle was Stephano's old one that used to be part of a pair. Looked like a decent car. I think the smog was missing. Column shift auto. Stephano can fill you in as he is here also.

I still can't believe that Zeffer street rod sold for $400K. It's a nice looking car, but it didn't have the technology of a lot of other street rods. It must have been the engine that got those guys so pumped up.

Re: Barrett-Jackson 2004
 

What was the deal with the 68 L89 Chevelle convertible? Is it a real L89 car? If so, why didn't it sell for more? I figured it would bring $100K if it was documented. I think it sold for $64K.

Re: Barrett-Jackson 2004
 

Regarding the '68 L89 Chevelle convertible......

There has never been any documentation discovered to support that GM ever built such a car is what I have read. I've never seen it noted in any production total breakdowns by numerous sources. As the description reads with the car at BJ it claims "believed to be". Doesn't mean one didn't fly under the radar and get produced but skepticism remains. Dealer conversion?

One thing is for sure, I was impressed by the guy that purchased all 4 Calloway Corvettes. WOW, $675,000 worth of power! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
