Default LeMans Blue 69 Yenko Chevelle

So I am in Seattle doing an inspection of an LS6 today when I look up to see a Leman's Blue 69 Yenko Chevelle with white stripes drive by. I 'think' it had the mag wheels and not the Rally wheels on it. I say 'I think' because I was taken aback by the initial site and wasn't paying that close attention to the wheels. Anyone know whose it may belong to? It looked like a VERY nice restoration and the dealer had not seen it before.

I just hope it was not Kevin S. as I wanted to call him and pay him a visit but the trip was only planned days ago and I did not have a chance to contact him. I would have loved to have seen his collection while here!

Could it have been Chads former Yenko Chevelle? Must likely a clone, there a quite a few Lemans Blue Clones out there.

From what I found out on Facebook it is a local clone but a very nice one at that along with a nice owner. I would have liked to have met him and saw the car up close as it was nice.

Unless you are in a town that is having a Chevelle or Camaro or Nova Regional Show, SRC, SLS, or MCACN's, safe to say that these are all Yenko Cloned Chevelle's, Camaro's or Nova's that we see [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

I have seen this Really neat car at the Annual XXX All Chevy Show put on by the PNWCC. Very-Very clean.
