First of all there are 4 known white stripe cars ….not 2 as described.
Cliffs car
Original Owner Connecticut car
Doug Perry car
Brothers Collection car
Secondly….Cliffs body number is 202477 which ranks 6th among the 10
Thirdly…Cliffs vin number is 9N579281 which ranks 3rd among the 10
I am confident that the reason Cliffs car was used as a magazine test car is that it was the ONLY gold Yenko left at the dealership and all others had already left to go out to the Yenko network dealers ….furthermore Cliffs car is the only gold car sold directly from Yenko Chevrolet.
So in closing it is not a pilot car nor is it a prototype car. I wholeheartedly agree that it is a test car for magazine coverage and exposure for Yenko Chevrolet.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge in this. I am sure when people hear Pilot or Prototype it helps with the hype and the dollars go up. It is a striking 69 Yenko non the less.
