What's up with the A/C vent in the dash, Wes? Was this a factory Muncie 4-speed car or converted later? Interesting find for sure.

Hi Wes, I don't know how it got on our list. Perhaps as you mentioned the original handwritten list VIN was misinterpreted and at some point, a previous owner added a repop YS tag with last digit missing and badging. Based on the information & pics you provided this car has no connection to Yenko Chevrolet: Trim Tag missing Magic Mirror (script), Build Date, Delivered to KS Dealer, No 140 speedo and only 1or 2 cars were built with A/C. The seller should have provided you this info or whoever inspected the car prior to purchase.

There is an update to our internal registry list and recently it was removed, however the site list is only updated once or twice a year. The next update is due within the few next week.

Just an FYI but be sure to check the hidden VINs. The trim tag on the car has been reattached, dash top panel replaced so be sure to verify hidden VINs match.

Verification of VIN match.

A bit more on the car. An interesting comparison is that the bottom two holes (from 1st page of thread) match the same distance on YS 8023.

Per the early 2010's owner there was no A/C dash when he sold it in 2015.
