Yes M, that the car with the glass decklid with the spoiler grafted onto it. Whats cool is Yenko used the original decklid for the mould and you can see masking tape that they put over the access holes in the trunk and even the stamping date that matches the rest of the car...BKH

Thanks for all of the info and congrats so far. I wanted to post this car here just for the kind of interaction that is taking place. I think information shared helps everyone. In response to how I found the car? Years of networking and following up on a rumor, and then a couple more years of trying to get the seller to sell. Other people knew about this car but they all got bored after several months and went away. Be persistant.

Dana, When you said you found it in the desert...was it still in California...or ???

This site and it's "finds" never cease to amaze me!

Calif. high desert. Left at the 2nd cactus and right at the coyote skull behind the big rock...Nice and dry thank God.

Maybe SS427 or someone else can shed some light on Jay Kline Chevrolet. Is it still there? Any history? Did anyone grab paperwork? Would love to here from anyone who might have a lead on paperwork for this car. Thanks again.

Thanks Dana,
Jay Line is no longer there and has not been for a number of years from what I recall. However, the family still owns and operates many dealerships under the name Kline Automotive Group and Kline Autoworld. Unfortunately I don't have much information on Jay Kline or it's history. I believe Earl (mnyenko) may have a lot more however and I will ask him to chime in. Seems to me he knew a lot of people from the dealership from the day. However, if there is anything he/I can do to help you track your car's history, we would be more than happy to do so.
Rick

Steve Kline still operates Kline Mitsubishi,far cry from chevrolet,I have tried to reach him but have not had any luck. Earl (Mnyenko) had given me that info and i was going to see if he had anything from the old days.
