A dead horse? How about a 'dead ape'?

There you go with little mysterious comments...why not post the VINS of all the re-bodied or "extensively restored" Deuces you know Marlin, as Greg did ? My point is you can't delete one guy and let another guy move forward when it comes to this info....Not sure why Greg decided to grace us with this critical info in public...I think he is just pissed because LS 6's aren't as valuable as Yenko/COPO cars...hell even re-bodies are worth more !! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Like I said in the first few lines of this thread....This post isn't meant to be a negative post against the current owner or the car per se. It is a real Yenko VIN, and the VIn has a neat history. While I'm not familar with "Zedder's" post I agree that one shouldn't be removed.

I received an email on my private email from someone questioning my "motives" and how did I knwo about the car being a race car...Well the short answer is because I know the former owner and the cars history is well documented as far as a race car goes. I did find it interesting that the person that sent the email didn't sign it nor when I sent my phone number did they call...So..if you are reading..step up and call or post. My motive in posting this is strictly to inform future potential purchasers about that VIN, and to relay a neat history on a real car. If I step on the toes of some of you guys because I called out a car...oh well..get over it...If you aren't gulity of anything then you have nothing to worry about. As far as the info remaining in the shadows and being "whispered" about...So that is ok, as long as it doesn't cause anyone any embarrassment??? Well maybe some guys need to be called out..The truth always comes out..especially in the global world of the internet...

Now, Now! Get your panties out of a bunch! The 'ape' is some local folk-lore, not a government cover-up!

I for one try to not even talk about suspicious cars anymore, remember what happened a year ago with Belk's silver deuce sale - I got pulled into that one without even knowing what was going on, the suspicions were justified - but why should I bare the abuse! Why would I want to go out on a limb about suspicous cars that have been fully restored? If a buyer is paying for a car and can't figure it out - then pay someone to figure it out for them, otherwise, run the risk.

How was it known that it was a racecar? Wasn't it in a mag? Looking just like this one?

Belair,

That is really funny...did it take you awhile to come up with that??? If you would read the original post, I think you will find that I was tracking the VIN at the same time the post about the LS6/COPO debate was going on..I've known about the Yenko since about 1987 or so....Again why shouldn't it become public knowledge, as if you feel there isn't anything wrong with what it appears was done then you shouldn't have a problem with it being in the open..might there be some truth to the rumors that there are more cars in collections like this..and heaven forbid if these cars were exposed....Whether a COPO with an apparent re-body is worth more than a LS6 is of no bearing on this topic..This post was meant to tell a history and share how the car looked..that is all.

Re: Yenko Camaro VIN 124379N615272..and its' histo
 

No actually Greg since you began whining about how little the LS 6 is worth as opposed to the COPO/Yenko cars,,I have been wanting to post that !!! Take no offense...but if the shoe fits wear it !!I just would not want to be the bearer of bad news to someone in an open forum...even though I'm sure your cause is noble. But I sure wouldn't want to see the post deleted like what was done previously either.

Re: Yenko Camaro VIN 124379N615272..and its' histo
 

Just so everyone is 100% completely aware and understands..I spoke to the owner on 2 occasions relaying the info BEFORE posting about the condtion of the car in a public forumn..

As far as "whining" about values..well I really don't care as I'm into this hobby for the money..anyone with half a brain would find better investments..maybe like land...My point was just that people are making decisions and paying what a nice SFR cost just based on a document ( a POP) or the fact that something is "matching numbers"..only to find out that they were wrong..IMO there isn't any need to worry or whine as we each have our own opinions and values..Just don't complain and bitch when you find out you didn't buy what you thought you did..

Greg , Isnt it true you were upset because he wanted your Ls6 and 150k for his car?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif
