That sounds more realistic.
Here is another Paragraph taken from the same magazine article.
Quoteing Don Yenko:
We did extremely well for about the last eight months of the Year.Then the Insurance Companies caught up with us and started flatly refusing to insure the cars at any amount of Money.This turned the last 100 or so cars into really Distressed Merchandise.We had a heck of a time Selling them.I'll tell you,we'd take anything for them,even to the point of losing Money.We even Seriously considered transplanting our leftover 396's into the COPO cars just to try and get rid of them.Luckily,they did finally sell".

Can you imagine today,trying to negotiate and dicker with the salesman on a Brand New Yenko!
