Re: Another cool pic!
How did this car get from Ohio to CA?
Original owner who lived in PA bought the car over in Ohio new. He then advertised the car in Hemmings around '78-'79, R.Smith from CT came and bought it.
(Smith was looking for one to replace the Gobi Beige Yenko Nova he bought new in '70 at W.R.Austin, because he had traded it in at a Chevy dealership in TN in '73.)
Smith sold the blue car to fellow CT guy 'Alan' in '81, who offered it to a local guy in '87. Local guy already had a Forest Green one from Bresee Chev, Syracuse, NY so he passed. Another local guy passed as well since he had a Fathom Blue Yenko Nova from Scuncio Chev, RI.
Greg Joseph in CA purchased the car soon after for the Otis Chandler collection.
CT was/is an active state for Yenko cars, much more so than most people think!!
