'69 Yenko Nova

[COPO]

That is interesting to hear it came from Van Chevrolet. My '70 LS-6 Convertible was also sold new at Van Chev. and is believed to be the first one built. Seems that Van sold a number of "hot" cars.

Tom,
That car sounds like a winner! Will you post some photos?

Tom:
According to the research that I have done on the '69 Yenko Novas, your car has the earliest body number, Kevin's car has the earliest VIN number. I am not sure which one denotes as 'earliest', and I sure don't want to start anything on it either!! Maybe yours was the first one 'sold' according to Vinces paperwork??

Either way, can't wait to see it.

For years even before Tom bought the Nova we were informed from Vince though Mark Kickle that this was Nova #1. Who knows.. It's cool no matter what number is assigned to it...

For clarification, both of these cars are 01A build date.

Tom;
Have you found a Broadcast Sheet? This will tell you the actual day that the car was made!

Marlin; No such luck. That was the first thing Rob did, was check for any "hidden" paperwork. None found. One interesting note. Since Vince would not talk to me, we ran the Nova's VIN through the NICB, an agency that has official Chevrolet (and others) records which tell where a car was delivered to. The Nova came back as Yenko Chevrolet, W. Pike St EXT, Canonsburg PA 15317, thus this Nova is for sure a Yenko. Tom

Would like to know the VIN and Trim Tag info from Randy Miller's '69 Yenko Nova if anyone has it. I would like to compare his data to the others to see where it falls in.

I believe Randy's car was sold out of Nankivell Chev. in Indianapolis, or out of V.V. Cooke in Louisville. We have some approximate dates for the sale to the original owner of a '69 Yenko Nova, and I think it is now Randy's car.

Thanks,
M
