Default Re: How Many Where Original Yenkos??

Bud, your question is easily understood but like the others say hard to answer. Last years reunion proved that even a real Yenko could have a restamped engine. It all started when a once respected Yenko expert showed up with a 69 Yenko that he claimed was original & unrestored. Well it was pretty much that, original & unrestored, other than the engine. If it was not for the original owner of the car in question showing up at the show with the Yenko he traded the questioned car in on, it would have probably never been questioned. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] He had the paperwork for both cars and he told the story of how he had punched a hole in the side of the block the first night he had the car in question. He then traded the "blown up" car in for another Yenko the next day or two. This was not a good situation for the guy claiming his car still had the original engine it, but he could have avoided this by saying it was a "correct" 427 but had been restamped. Like copolocator says, most people would not care anyways..........................RatPack.......... ......
