Default Re: yenko 69 Nova Big Blocks

Tim; As per Brian's car, Warren told me it was a 427 car. I had no reason to doubt it, as I was not at Yenko in 1969-70. If he decides to go another direction and say it was always a 396 car, then I will not question it. I will list it as such. As per your car, the same thing happened. I had known about the car for a couple of years and had heard no one say it was a DH car. When you quoted Nancy as saying it was, I simply did some more research, including a call to her. She told me on the phone that she did not know whose car it was. Now, the same as I said about Warren, if Nancy, or one of a select few experts whose opinions I value, say they believe it to be a DH car, it will be noted as such by the sYc.

In closing, you, Mike or anyone for that matter, are welcome to your opinions. I AM NOT AN EXPERT! Nor have I ever said that the sYc was the absolute authority when it comes to supercars. I simply have been lucky enough to have come in contact with a lot of very interesting people who were a part of supercar history. These folks are my heros, and I feel blessed that they will take the time to share lives with me, past and present. Tom
