Just my 2 cents but in my humble opinion this Yenko should be the most sought after Yenko built bar none. Reason being it is one of I think only 5 verified gold cars to still exist, original engine and rear axle, and being the original road test car is the mega bonus. I kick myself for not buying it when Vince told me about it, if my memory is correct it was 20 for the car and another 5 for the engine. As Archie and Edith Bunker said those were the days.
