Derek (Xelerator) welcome aboard. This is a great place and one of the most informative sites on the net.
Great pics, can't wait to see the rest. At least it proves this is not just an urban ledgend LOL

Thanks Xelerator. How much does Larry want for the collection?

Did anyone make out the last 3 digits to the BDY #. Curious to see how close it is to our 03B Yenko.

Thanks for the Welcomes, I know there is alot to learn and this seems the place to do it! cool! Like the drilled holes were for a Stewart Warner Tach! I love info like that! Thanks.

I did ask Larry what kind of offers he has gotten, but he did not want to give that information, he also did not want to give how much he paid.

Mr Yenko, I do have higher Res pics at home, I will check as soon as I get home, I am sure I can tell from them.

Met with Larry tonight (yes, we've now met)...that's another story in itself...got pics, will post them as soon as I downsize them...some numbers of interest that I found:
VIN off of car is 124379N615312, the axle stamping is BE0306 (easy to see with mirror but very difficult to take a picture, hold a mirror and flashlight and sucking in my gut under the car), Fisher Body number is 219789, engine pad stamping as noted in previous pics is TO304MN and the stamping on the engine by the oil filter is 19N615312...barley legible that I couldn't get it to show up in pics. The block casting number I couldn't make out. Its got the holes for the tach monitor and tach...odometer show 45556 miles. He also mentioned the car has the original numbers matching trans (didn't look but shoulda)...pics coming soon...
Oh yeah...the big day is December 15...met some guys from the far east with a funny accent (Boston)...one guy was worse than a kid in a candy store...he was practically leading me around the parts by the cuff of my jacket...great guys...

Gotta love that nice firewall paint fade. Oh if I could do it over again...

So we'll all be waiting on the story with Larry.

What's with the big day?

That car is 3 body numbers away from my Yenko. What dealer sold it originally?

**Born30YrsLate** · #60 12-03-2005, 05:58 AM

Larry said original owner states it was sold new through Broadway in Green Bay as a Yenko. Larry also gave me the names of all the owners. Anybody want to get an NICB on this one. Owner history goes...original owner bought it from Broadway in Green Bay then traded it in for an Oldsmobile the next year and the car was then put on a wholesale lot where the 2nd owner bought it, but went into the service in 1971 and sold it to "Dumpster Don" until Larry bought it this past fall...
It was crazy how many 074 (round exhaust port ones) and 392 aluminum big block heads there were and how many of them were in the box yet...corvette big brakes...trannies (lot of m21s)...it was very interesting, it's a different experience than seeing the pictures cause you can actually appreciate the large quantity of good stuff...
