3 Yenko's and others at auction

The L89 looked rather dubious to me. Freshly stamped engine pad. All the other cars were real deal, known cars with original paperwork. I don't think there is any original paperwork with that 70 L89.

So who is coming to New Jersey in September?

I've never seen any paper work on that Nova to prove it was converted? What you got?

I believe the green Nova is the one that Greg Joseph sold to the the former present owner for something like $600k? Don't recall what paperwork was with the nova but the only thing the ragtop had was a fake laminated repro window sticker.

Dave bought the L89 Convertible from RK Motors and we discussed this car many of times!! Said he they had proof! Never saw it..
Its funny a few always chime about this Nova knowing this car is as real as it gets with approval from Vince. Sorry!! I would take his word over those cars sold with only a affidavit from some previous owner!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]
I would more then happy to sell that Nova again with or without docs!! I hope it ends up in another great collection who wont care what 10 people in the hobby think!!

Let's stick to the facts regarding the Nova. There was a statement that the car had / has docs? If it does great, I'd know that I sure would like to see them. As far as Vince Emme verifying the Nova.....I'd like to see that too?

Click the link on the nova!! Docs from Vince..

I have seen that document to verify the car as one of the 37 or so L78 Novas on the Yenko Sports Cars Inventory Sheet. I have no doubts that it is one of those Novas. I see nothing to verify the car as a 427 Conversion?

There have been other such Nova's on the same list, which were never converted.

Where is Marlin when you need him? I'll defer to those who have much more knowledge that me in this matter.

Stefano, sorry about any confusion concerning what I said about &quot;original docs.&quot; I assumed it was a known car and don't know all of the intricacies about the converted versus non-converted cars.

There have been other Novas which had similar info and believed by some to be converted 427 Cars, which later turned out to have been, non converted, based on info shared by original owners.

I had just never seen any proof that this particular Nova had been converted.

A letter from Vince stating that, based on the records he has it recieved a 427 conversion, would go a long way, IMHO.
