Maybe a 69 or 70 but I don't think they made any 72's.

I'm just guessing here,but since it is a Concours gathering and if his information is correct,I would imagine it's a standard 1972 Nova sold new from Yenko Chevrolet,and is either an unrestored survivor,or meticulous restored example.
Meaning not necessarily a Yenko Hi-performance modified "SuperCar" as we are accustomed to here.

I am way out of my league here, guys. But I found this at oldride.com
http://216.109.125.130/search/cache?ei=U...=1&.intl=us
1972 Chevy Yenko Nova Duce LT-1 Recreation
So, I guess it is a recreation, not an original?

Maybe, in this case, just a 'creation'?

If it wasn't 'created' in the beginning, (as in a '72 DEUCE) how can it be "RE" created?

(Why do I keep hitting myself with the hammer? I know I'll regret this too. Charley; feel free to delete this if it gets as stupid as the "is a 435 HP Vette......" fiasco!)

Yea, just a bit darker!

Looks like the '72 Yenko Deuce Nova that I bailed your buddy out of in '97 or so - in hindsight, should've let him sink.
