Did they ever have any luck with an NICB on this car?

He sure did Dan. I remember the Kenny Ross Chev. dealership campy t.v. commercials. I think he used his grandma in them.

Sure I'm not alone when saying I have seen this car in person several times in past years and it is outstanding. If my memory serves me right, I believe Tom bought it new and then reacquired it many years later.

Should the value of this car be so high? I know it is a well restored low mile car with a really great story but... it is not a 427 Yenko. While I am sure everyone here would love to see it and own it at a fair price would someone pay up to own this novelty?? Should it not command a premium over a 68 396 SS but be worth far less than a 68 Yenko?

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the sales ad description.

Yenko sold a lot of family cars too. When WE think of a Yenko Camaro, WE think of either an early transplanted engine car OR a later COPO that had the factory installed 427. Either way, a 427 car.

Someone should invite her to the Muscle Car and Corvette National show to help it get some great feelers out on it.

Did the original engine ever get reunited with the car? Is the L88 still in it??
