I have no information on that VIN.

Ok thanks, I did not think this Yenko was a known car,

Anyone have inventory sheets showing selling dealer?

[ssl78]

Probably on the one missing inventory sheet. I bet it is a early Yenko shipped to Jack Douglass the vin isnt to far away from my Orange x66 early Yenko sold at Douglass.

MO or MN assy stamp? Do you have a picture of the stamp?

[ssl78]

Block has been decked definetly was built for a race application the crank does have a pilot bushing so possibly a 4 speed car

[resto4u]

So this car should be a X66 as it would have been the first group? Then yenko used X11 and X44? Why were the first batch X66? Something GM did when they started the copo program, then GM changed copo's to X11 and X44?

I know this is an old thread - but based on the vin number - the trim tag build date should be dec .....when did they begin stamping the oil filter pad?

This is the 6th Yenko VIN listed so it would be an 01B car. It would also have to be a 4 speed car since the first 50 were all 4 speeds. There is no selling dealer in the registry for this car. Ed didn't have this VIN listed on his website when it was up and running either.

hmmm, based on the build serial numbers - I thought the build date is the month of dec?

No, the VIN puts it in mid-Jan.

[enio45]

so, as to date, the car is not found or recently registered from what I can see?

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

This VIN would be an 01B car, X66 body, with a 2024xx sequence number. I'm not aware that the car was found as of yet.
