The first thing I would do is find someone in law enforcement or at an insurance agency who has access to the NICB and do a search on your VIN and see if the MSO shows Yenko Chevrolet. Without any existing paperwork still with the car, that would be your best bet at finding out if it's a "Yenko" Vega or not. Outside of that I'd start tracking down previous owners and see what they might have to say. Best of luck in your search.

Yeah, let us know what you find out. I was so tempted to bid on that car but luckily I have no money!

The COPO code for the 1972 Vega Special Engine was 9C2AA with a retail price of $77. There were 160 built in 1972.

The October 1971 HOT ROD has a writeup titled The NEW Equalizers. On pg 131 theres a good engine pic showing the 2GC Rochester that was pressurized thru the stock air filter.I installed 2 of Yenko's turbo kits,one on a 72 hatchback and another on my 73Vega Panel Express.
