about a month ago that car was at 160k, it is a very nice car for sure with low miles. i'm also in the market for something. the gentleman that owns wwmc is a member here. like charley lillard stated, legendary motorcars has two yenkos on their site. if you find out anything about those let me know. welcome to the site and good luck.

I checked Legendarys cars out, i wase'nt aware that they were here in Canada. The yellow one is a non matching #s car, auto but still has a 427 aftermarket engine in it. They want $135k for it. The orange one is a #'s matching also an auto and they're asking $145k for that one. I did'nt ask for the serials to check them as the guy seemed pissed that i had the nerve to ask for the mileage. You know i used to sell cars, these guys could learn a little about salesman edicate. Maybe it's becouse they get alot of BS calls, but still you never know who you might be talking to. I've always wanted one and i have a general idea as to how much i have to pay, and I am a legit customer. Is this the kind of attitude that yenko owners have or is it just these few eggs in the basket?. I did'nt get names but i'll make sure whoever it was won't get credit for the sale!

They are dealers...not owners...I wouldn't try and equate owners attitudes with what a dealer gave you .

for an auto matching yenko it seems a little low going by the market today. there was a gentelman here that was going to sell his auto yenko, its a non matching car but a real yenko camaro. can't remember who it was.

-----Be aware, Canucklehead,that just because the add and the salespeople say the engine has matching numbers does not in any way mean the engine is the original engine to that car. Matter of fact,the fact that Legendary says "matching numbers" as opposed to "the original engine" probably means that restamps are present.........Bill S

Restamps being a replacement engine from 69 so as to keep with the model year or someone taking a block and stamping the right codes on it?. The reason i ask is becouse some people use different terms in this buisness. Also i wanted to ask, if i was to take, say a non matching #'s yenko and customize it further, how much would that effect the value of it. I would never think to do anything to a #'s matching but being that one has already being altered???, just curious.
