Default Re: '69 Yenko Nova

Kevin;
I agree, it is not that big of a issue. In fact, I would say that we may never know which was "converted" first, which would actually be #1. Also, Vince is holding true to form. One day he says his records show one thing and then the next he says they show something else, such as your
Nova. I wish you luck in getting answers to the questions you have concerning your car, as it is a very interesting car, but from what I have read and know of Vince, the picture will only get more fuzzy. In addition, I have to disagree with him on some accounts, such as R. Miller's Nova. Because Vince's records indicate that is was sold for "a couple of hundred dollars less", that it must be a unconverted 396 car. I think you need more facts then this to decide what Yenko did ot did not do. Even though I will be the first to admit that Vince does have many of the Yenko records, until he comes forth with them and allows some one besides himself to determine/document what the records show, I will always have some doubt as per his "opinions". On a side note, the Yenko records that Vince have were obtained illegally, as they were taken from the old Canonsburg dealership by a former employee and "sold" to Vince without permission from the Yenkos or staff. The family still has hard feelings over this matter, as they feel that the records should be made public, not being "sold" by someone who was never connected with the dealership or family and in it "only for the money".
