I spoke with who I believe is the owners wife. She told me that they removed the rear Yenko emblem after they saw someone else messing with it. She indicated that their plan was to not restore the car.

That would be a bummer. The car deserves to have the mechanical refreshed/restored and make the car driveable. It is way too cool to let it continue to sit and waste away.

From my conversation I understood it to mean a mechanical refurbish and drive it was in the plans. I’m guessing the owner will chime in at some point

Alright !! That would be fitting and cool. I'm sure enough Supercar people asked him to join...

There were two Fathom Green 69 Yenkos from the same area that have been posted
I believe the one in the top photo was restored
The one in the lower photo was at the show
