Outrageous Claim or Legit Car?

Supply and demand dictates everything. I would imagine a Yenko sold hipo car would bring more than an identical car sold from a much less known dealer. The Yenko name brings a lot of attention.

Sure . . . for the Super Cars he built and sold. THAT I understand. But any other car?

It's like Baldwin Motion cars. Those that Joel Rosen worked on should have a high value. But a car sold by Baldwin Chevrolet? IMO - nope. The selling dealership of a factory stock car should have no intrinsic value whatsoever. And if it does than there is something wrong. It sounds like, to me, it's a way for people to artificially inflate the value of their car. Like those Marti Reports that boil the options down to show that the car in question is unique - a 1 of 1.

Oh . . . did I just "kick the puppy?"

Exactly. In fact, there were 50 Yenko Deuces that never even saw Canonsburg, PA... let alone the hands of Don Yenko, and they're worth no less than any other Deuce. I believe any car with legit ties to Yenko still holds the Yenko "mystique" and additional desirability...more so than the same car sold through some random unknown dealer.
