Yep trim tag is an old reproduction. Changes were certainly made that should affect value. We will see in a few weeks.

Default Yenko Nova...

Not sure I understand a repro trim tag on a car like this

Weren't most of the cars bench seat models..??

I was thinking the same thing Wilma. Why would someone change a TT on a high end Super Car like this. Maybe they just wanted a color change 🤷*♂️.

The trim tag was missing when Cliff traded for the car. The interior is all wrong but I doubt he knew better when it was restored.

from what i was told, the car was found as a yellow race car and had no interior , just one racing seat and roll cage.

The firewall was stripped out (no heater, no wiper motor) and it had a piece of aluminum covering the holes.

Some say the car should have a bench seat interior

Warren has paperwork on it
