You guys are assuming there is a real buyer....

What he said.

Bidder ID kept private. No way to tell if the buyer is legit.

It would be a whold different ball game if Don Yenko built this car. Heck Yenko didn't even build the engine. The guy ordered a bare block and heads and misc parts. How does that translate to Yenko stripes etc.? No doubt the parts have some historical significance. Basically a $20,000 car. Can't see an $80,000 premium for the engine.

Also find it strange that the car now has 35,310 miles on it, but evidently had 35,330 mile in 82 when they "stuffed" the engine in.

Whole story sounds fishy (other than the block purchase).
