E-Bay '69 Yenko Disguised As a Z-28 Clone!

[bergy]

Come on Tom - there's no need to be so mysterious. Why end the discussion with "said enough"? If there is more data to put on the record, please add it. If you go down the copo check list - this car is just missing the firewall attributes. All that I'm saying is, why in the world would someone rebody a Yenko using a totaled (with a swarn certified statement) body? If you're hesitant to discuss this within the parameters of this forum, you can PM me. These cars are too important to dismiss so cavalierly.

I have said all there is to say. No cowl induction piercing, no mounting holes for the relay, no hidden vins to match the Yenko vin in the dash, no 427/425, no original muncie, no BE, no cowl tag, etc. I think that its absolutely clear as to what the car is and Im not sure I can lend anymore info. It is what it is, a rebody. Nothing more nothing less. As long as it is represented as such, I see no issue. It may have a dash cluster and a subframe from an original car but thats about it. Hardly enough to make a real Yenko from. If you want others peoples opinion as to what the car is, just ask. Not being elusive or cavalier, just stating the facts. So, just state the car is a rebody and move on.

I would have to agree with the statements made by COPO140, and I don't know him from 'Adam'. I can't think of a story, or history that will un-rebody this car. Apparently, the rebody aspect was known by prominent folks in the hobby at least 10-12 years ago. Had I been one of them, I certainly would not have searched so hard for this car myself - if I had found it, I would have run for the hills!

Bergy, I'm stunned to read your post about '... its just missing some firewall details...' Those 'details' should not be deemed trivial or inconsequential!
