I asked the seller for the vin number. He will only provide that information to the winning bidder.

How did the seller know to say it had a 410 hp engine in it ? Vin only goes to the winning bidder ? That is BS. If there was a chance in hell of someone documenting it by the vin he would have it out there for all to see in order to sell for big $'s. He knows too much to be too dumb. Ask for a pic of the trim tag.

Grotto Blue is Code D right? That is the same color as my GTO although the Pontiac Color is Alpine Blue Metallic.

Charlie makes a good point on the VIN. Yes the color is Code D Grotto Blue. Same as this car that I just bought. For the record, this is an RS car cloned into a Z/28.

I would say the guy selling the ebay car a crook. He uses a different name and email address than listed with ebay. [ QUOTE ]

The vin and cowl tag info will go to the purchaser of the vehicle,I have information that the car was originally purchased from Dana Chevrolet. Please read the add as this is not a documented our verified Yenko nor is there a claim that it is but, it has a lot of equipment that shows the car maybe something special and, it is a very nice car. There would definitely not be any benefit in providing vin and cowl tag information to an individual or individuals that haven’t even bid on the car. I understand that individuals will want the vin and cowl tag info to verify it with the information on the yenko sight which regarding the 68 yenkos is neither complete or 100% accurate. For example Bill & Madelyn Emmerich’s 68 yenko with factory a/c!(why would Don yenko add a fiberglass hood to drop weight off the front of the vehicles and then put it on a a/c vehicle which totally defeats the purpose? Probably because there were more options offered than previously thought) which before it came on the scene a lot of the so called experts were stating that none of cars were a/c cars. Please don’t be offended by e mail as it is nothing personal, just business as my purpose for putting the car on the auction is to sell the car not to have it scrutinized by individuals that may not have any intentions of purchasing the car in the first place. I’m not stating that you are such an individual but they are out there. The car is what it is..a realy nice camaro, possibly something rare. Thanks

You could always call Dave Lucas directly. He's active in a BMX forum as a seller, and lists his phone # there:

Omar, the seller of the Camaro is apparently upset. He has sent the following email to several of us and I think wants it posted. I'm not sure why he doesn't just post on the site...
"First of all Mr. Hefty member# (628) let’s get one thing straight before you and Yenko.net end up with a really huge lawsuit for slandering my name across the Yenko sight and for the Yenko sight condoning it, in which legal action has already begun being discussed and it would be very easy to win as I have seen the remarks that you have made regarding me on the sight. I am not a crook as you have stated. In my opinion, you are a complete uneducated Jerk! You called me a crook on a nationally publicized web sight because I used a friend of mines e bay account for selling my vehicle? Very intelligent… You have made a very stupid and a very big mistake. Know one is hiding there name or info from you as who are you that anyone should have to hide anything from? My friend is the one who listed the car for me as he had an e bay account already set up and the car was NOT misrepresented in any way as seen in the e mail that you posted on the sight and the e bay add itself, the add clearly states that the car is non documented, and was very clear about the car and very honest about the car’s components. I even seen the correspondence on the sight between you and Mr. Lillard who told you that it was bs that I didn’t want to give you my vin numbers. I don’t have an obligation to anyone on the sight or anyone else for that matter to give them vin #or trim tag info of my car unless I CHOOSE TO. If you had a problem with not being able to attain the information you wanted then why couldn’t you be a man and call me as a number was left on the e bay add which if you had any sense you would have used it. I have proof that my car came with a 410 427 which came with the car when the car was purchased, know one had to tell me.. I.e. casting numbers ECT (for Mr. Lillard). So as for your” totally bs remarks , I think the only bs is your chicken sh-t life and the way you slander individuals name even though you don’t know them, know anyone they know or have ever done one single business transaction with them .It will be interesting to see if you have enough courage to post this e mail on the sight like you did the last one for all the members to see your true colors. It will also be interesting to see how the legal ramifications turn out regarding this matter also."
Omar or whoever you are..Your ebay auction seemed to imply that your car might be a yenko but you were not going to do the homework to find out. The easiest way to find out would have been to supply the vin or picture of the trim tag yet you will only give that info out to the winning bidder. It is obvious that a Yenko will bring a bunch more money than a fixed up Camaro so why wouldn't you give out the info to maximize the sale price. I see the auction ended at 20,000.00 but did not sell. A real Yenko might bring 100K more than what the auction ended at so why would you not provide pertinent info ? You have proof that it had a 410 hp 427 ? What is this proof ? You seem to be trying to attract the Supercar buyer but you won't give them any help ? All the Yenko implications seem to be taking away from the fact that it looks like a nice car.

Feel free to chime in.
