family is full of civil and federal law enforcement they ran all numbers, Nicb check will make you lose your job when misused they say, they contacted states where it originayed and migrated through, everything came back fine, looks like the old dealer here who bought it at police auction sold motor in 81, can't find records or so he says, so we think we're just gonna make her a drag which was our first intention, thanks for all the help , https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

1. The ghost note 4 piston calipers and BB heaterbox. 2. The extended studs on the front rotors, 3, The copper tubed linlock, 5, The steering box quick ratio, non power, 6. A lousy shot of the ladder bars on monoleaf, disregard rear axle its for rolling her around, The vin is also in there( what do you want its a walmart digital camera, also two shots of my first 67' 327 I restored 15 yrs ago, I just painted again last summer, Enjoy. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Struck ou on motor and past owners, both long gone or dead, dealer remembered pulling an aluminum block so it can't be orig. should have been cast iron I guess, oh well vins came back clean and registry said we can get a reconstructed title and vin plate for 50$ so we can race her next season at the drags in Epping probably heavy class, any one know of a 66 cast iron block 427 4sale we think we'll build her as a nostalgia drag since it looks like she used to be one , Thanks for everyone's help. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Basically, hawaii its not for sale, alot of info starting turning into offers and doc. fees up to 10,000$, we're far from that stage, I'll keep everyone informed of our progress. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

I would bet you can get more than 10K for it. I still think it should be put back as a Yenko. It will not be worth what a Survivor car is worth but I would think it would have just as much if not more validity than a Rebodied car.

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

We want to restore her back to a yenko, and are still trying to get the dealer here to dig up that engine he pulled in80', We want to do the restore, theregistry walked us through the title process , it went alot easier then I thought but I had to pay back sales tax on 11 years, it seemed worth it at this juncture, I would like to just keep all correspondence and services offered directed through this site and not called or approached directly at my residence, it freaks my wife out, I don't need to hear it from her anymore ya know, Again I appreciate everyon's help and I will continue to post pics and update on new info found, just chill a little bit with calling the house. I wasn't offered 10,000 for car that was just someone offering their documentation fee- I think its the same info all you guys in the know alredy gave me collectively. Thanks https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

So are you saying someone wanted 10K to verify the car ? Was it someone that posts here ?

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Is there any way to move this thread into the "Yenko" section and rename it now?

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

People calling you at home? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...thumbsdown.gif I would be upset also. voltures, they are circling. Did not know it was for sale. Lets not have another slugfest over a car, show the guy some privacy and respect. Roger

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

How did they call you at home ? Did you post your phone number somewhere ?

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Got docs. from mechanic, she was assembled at yenko, but not set up w/ race components there, those are what made me first reseach her so i still have to find out who put those elements in and when before restoring her. Mechanic said she went through span to central chevy(believed tobe W. springfield,Ma.) They are still in business, they don't have paperwork but manager is contacting owner and old mechanics to see what they might remember of her and original owner, its worth a shot anyway. I'll keep you updated https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Great info you have found thus far, keep us informed. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Berger,
Some time ago somebody posted an ad from an old MA newspaper on this site. It was a classified ad for a Yenko Camaro out of the Springfield area (413) area code. I believe the ad was from the 70's. I do not remember who posted it or when, but it is worth a shot to call the phone # and see if this is the same car.

Steve

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Matt,
What does your paper work have listed for Yenko installed parts? The nice thing about the 67 Yenko Camaros is that most of them came with headers, scatter shield, traction bars, and SW tach/gauges. So they were pretty hot cars when restored to condition delivered by Yenko. The rear end in your pictures was mostly put in after years of racing. In another post you asked about heads. I believe Yenko used the 375hp heads from factory if it was an original L78.

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Thanks steve do you know where i might locate the ad or old post of it. Joe I don't have possession of the paperwork yet but he did say it was assembled at canosburg , was red, same vin, and that the traction bars I described on my monoleafs are probably the same early type lakewood bars they started using in july of 67' there. He also thought their would be a tag for the ys # but was not sure if it was just on corvairs that year, but he has the assigned ys# on the workorders, if they affixed it to the rear door jam above the door latch it appears their are two holes filled and painted there, does yours have this joe. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

I don't know of any 67 Yenko's that got the YS# tag. The Stingers and 68 Yenko Camaros did have a tag. 67 and 69 no tags.

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

yeah I couldn't find any indications of tag holes, the other spot on rear jam appeared to be a factory spot weld. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

...What would your YS# tag be? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

it would be a small number plate but they were not on 67 camaros just stingers and 68 camaro's, I believe the yenko super camaro number assigned to it on the work orders is 722, but the mechanic was going off memory and did not have paperwork in front of him when we last spoke. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

spoke w/ vince emmi over the phone, 10000$ for documentation, forget that, but he did describe a car he owned in early 70s he bought off a drag racer sounded exactly like mine right down to the 57 olds rear and flat hood, red car orig painted over white.Hmmmmm.....

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

If Vince owned it in the 70's he would have known it was a Yenko and would have sold it as a Yenko. I don't understand how it's Heritage could have gotten lost. I would think it would have been kept as a Yenko.

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Charlie I gotta find that ad of a 67 yenko for sale in the springfield area in the late 70s, someone already spoke of, I think it may be the same car, I don't think the car was running when vince had it or after if its the same one, my motor got pulled in 80', dealer may have bought it as a yenko for the motor.

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

he was describing a lot of cars he use to have, described another that he looked at that waas ayenko but guy made it a world of wheels car with blower, pleated velour interior turbo 400, pink stripes on candy apple red paint, weird thing is I have slides of that car at a world of wheels show just as he described, they were in my glove box when I bought my car, I think he sold his white one to the guy for parts, he said last he knew the show car was sold to a guy in a small town in ny who beat the hell out of it and blew the motor, my white one was last registered in a small town south of albany, I think two yenkos both 67 rs's traveled from owner to owner in the 70s and early 80s together, one a pimped out showcar(red) and mine a white parts car, the good part is vince said the white one was the only yenko he owned where he was able to track down the original motor from another racer, he put it back in car before he sold it, too many coincidences. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Nice to see Vince has finally gotten reasonable...!

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

I'll post pics of the show car maybe someone will recognize it, its got the guys name in the pin strip and on the world of wheels sign in the windshield, I think it says JoeC but not the guy on this site I already asked him, showcar was ugly.... you wouldn't know it was ever a yenko unless you ran the numbers like mine, even had 454 emblems on it.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: 67 baldwin motion identification question/new memb
 

Why don't you just have Ed Cunneen out to look at her ? Then you can put all the coincidences to bed....
