Yenko Chevelle

[TechNova]

I had talked with a guy this weekend about the Yenko Chevelle he used to own that was cut up into a stock car. I've known the guy for years, some of you may know who it is. He said he had a guy from Iowa call and talk to him about the car and he enjoyed it because the guy just wanted info and offered to help him research a Pontiac because he enjoys it. A real good car guy.
However another guy called (unrelated incident) and wanted signatures on documents stating that the VIN plates he had were he originals to the car. Trouble was, the original Yenko VIN was cut in half to run the roll bar tubes in the early 70's. The guy I know declined to sign anything.
This was followed by another guy owning the old stock car trying to get him to sign. He declined again. The old stock car had been re-bodied and was really only the frame from the original car!
The point is, there are some great guys out there but also
some that are not so great.
How would you feel if you had bought a restored car that had this history? Beware.
For those that know who the Yenko owner is, mark that car down as gone for good.
