It appears to have an AC dash. Unless the dash has been changes, that would verify the fact that is not a Yenko.

Well, the white interior would be another good sign its not a Yenko...although it all looks to be repro anyhow. The dashpad seems to be the only AC piece, as the kickpanels are non/ac, as is the heater controls. The VIN is way too late, not even close to any known Yenko VINs from what I can see...Interesting lack of engine bay pics, wonder why he doesn't show off what's under that trick hood scoop?

PS...Did you note that it's "one of 10 in Garnet Red"? Now if we could just find the other 9....

The other nine should be easy to make. I mean find.

And in the auction he clearly states that it is the orignal dash. So, I guess we are all to believe that GM made a mistake and put in the wrong dash?

He tries to belittle one of the people asking questions about the car and says something like "new information is comming (his spelling, not mine) out all the time" and that he worked "for GM as a service guy for 15 years". Why do we need all of the experts here on this site? We can just go to Mr Goodwrench-- he'll set us straight.

Looks Burgundy to me. I invited him to check the vin list on this site but have not heard back. If he mentions Greg at DPE we know we have a winner.

My favorite part of the car is the HUGE speaker boxes in the rear window.
