Default 1972 RS Z28 Project car 427

That was a fun car for me Joe. I am glad it all worked out and it is in good hands.

I bought Sixtiesmuscle's old Yenko tribute car. It is a LA built L78 documented with build sheet. Mulsanne blue with blue interior. Currently the car has an LS6 in it. In a way this car reminded me of John P's (Alss) 69 SS/RS ZL1 that I used to borrow. I wish I could have bought that one but I am sure this will suit me just fine. Sixties did a great job on the resto. The fact that it was once part of his collection was a big selling point. I don't have many pictures of the car yet. Still haven't had the chance to bring it home but it kept safely nearby. My intention is to drive it and have fun cause I don't want to be working on anything this summer. However, short term the strips will probably be coming off. Might add a couple of goodies I have been collecting. Long term I would like to get the correct L78 back in there. I have a few regular photos of the car that I could scan in. Here is a shot of the motor. Perhaps someone has a picture of the car saved somewhere. I will take more photos once I get it home.
