There is a yellow Y Chevelle sans front clip reported to be within 35 miles of me. A buddy knows what farm it resides on, but isn't talking. I also know the person who happens to have the front clip off of it. It is a real car, and through multiple channels I have heard the same story. Who wants it?

Is that the one that once was a stock car?

I tracked dy Yenko chevelle several years ago from Dubuque, Ia. Car ended up denver,Co. Lost track of it there. That was 10-15 years ago.

[Schonyenko2]

Unfortunatly Mr Meyers is dead.It's been hunted hard.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Nope, just resting in a pasture somewhere waiting for Schoneye to find it

I am unsure of whether or not it was rouny-rounded. I don't think so, but I haven't laid eyes on it yet. The front clip is unharmed and is in the hands of another enthusiast who is deperately seeking the car also. What is a thrashed one worth? Assume the worst because I can't verify condition. Those interested in VIN swapping and cutting and pasting need not apply.

I am just curious if I were to get the opportunity to purchase, what would it be worth? Quite honestly (and at the risk of making people angry) I am not interested in anything outside of the f-body line and would simply pass it on to help pay for my project. But, what is a reasonable figure to pay for what we must consider a basket case Y- Chevelle? Is there a point of decay it is not worth the gas to bring it home? We must also, incidentally, assume that the drivetrain is gone. Again, I don't know any of this and it is ALL speculation--

This car resides somewhere in the borders of this map. I don't know which farm yet, but I heard another account of it this weekend. I am working on it.

BTW, (trying to be politically correct as to how to word this) I think this may be one of the few Yenko cars sitting on a farm in Iowa that still retains its original tags- so I have heard.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Value? $150k+, another $80k for a resto puts it at $230k or so - which is about the market price, eh?

[Racefan]

So, Schonye.....

If I can find this car and turn it over to you does that mean you'd do my car for free? Hey, it is worth a try....isn't it?
