So what would be a fair price on a rebody yenko?

Re: 1969 Yenko Camaro Lemans Blue Black Stripes
 

Do you know if the original shell still available or was it destroyed?

Re: 1969 Yenko Camaro Lemans Blue Black Stripes
 

The ad in the beginning of this thread stated that there were as-found, pre-restoration photos available. Was the car really that rusty?

I've read all the posts here, and could someone please answer the following three questions for me:

1.) Did this car receive 100% new sheet metal, everywhere on its body due to unrestorable rust problems?

2.) If it has been rebodied, is the original shell available?

3.) Has this car received some new sheet metal but not all??

Thanks!

In this M-40/T400 YENKO resto, is that HURST Shifter and console the current design (not original) and are they still available, from what vendors ???????????

How many known COPO M-40's were column shifted? Not converted to HURST Floor Shift.

Thanks,

We were asked by the buyer, as a condition of the deal to confirm that this Yenko was not a rebody. The inspection, much to our surprise, as well as that of the current owner proved otherwise.

This is a case wherein, the restoring Body Shop seems to have chosen a path of least resistance for their restoration process.

The original Camaro did not need to be rebodied, in order for it to be restored.

this sounds like a clear cut case of diminished value, I hope the owner that paid for the "restoration" takes those clowns to court . . . https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/mad.gif

Do you honestly believe the resto shop supplied a FREE clean Camaro body? They must have only billed for the needed body work but decided to remove the cowl and supply another body which also needed sheetmetal work for LESS than the cost of the needed bodywork on the original body?
Hey, I have some swampland I'd like to sell!
