Doesn't The Brothers Collection own half of the '69 T/A verts?

The vins are known on the 1967 Yenkos but not much is known on the earliest vin car. YS-606

I think YS-606 it is the butternut yellow black top car used in all the early ads.

I was told it was a demo used by James Spencer from Span Inc then sold to a Yenko network dealer when Spencer got a 68 Yenko demo.

YS-604 is known and restored , butternut yellow , no black top, side pipe car

photo is an early 427 Yenko ad

Even when you have the vin numbers and the YS numbers , it can be hard to tell which was the first car built.

This photo was captioned as Stinger production car #1


I asked about this car and was told at the time, it was not known what the YS number is on this car.

Does anyone know what YS number this Stinger is?

Yenko didn't put the YS numbers in order of cars built.

There are three Boss 429's that I feel that could be in the conversation for top 5 missing muscle cars.

1. Bunkie Knudsens personal Boss '69 Boss 429 w/ A/C
2. The Low Investment Driveline Mustang"Midship" '69 Boss 429
3. The '69 Shelby Boss 429 prototype (no photos exist)
