Is that a repop tag?

It looks like there are a few 02D built Lemans Blue Yenko Camaros with a BDY # that would fall into the 2197XXX range. The style trim 02D built cars have a much higher BDY #. I don't know if it is a real tag, some of the characters are a little off from some original examples but who knows. I would like to see the back of the tag.
Seeing the whole tag would be nice also.

Does the registry keep sequence data and/or just VINS? Sounds like Doug knows this tag is legit, but does falling within the sequence possibilities actually confirm it is a Yenko? Why would the tag not be 100% uncovered? I get covering the last digits of the body sequence, but why cover the other lines/numbers?

That's definately 100% a repop tag. It was probably made it up because they knew the body number range.

I looked it over close to the 03D on my Z and it appears to be a repop.

Fake - there are 3 LB Yenkos in that 2197XX sequence, but they are 03B cars.

There are 7 more LB Yenko Camaros with vins from N613347 to N614804 that also have 2197XX BDY #s. I'm not sure if N613347, N613667 and N613853 are 2D. N613759 HO car is an 02D build. I have LB N614579 as BDY 219733 and 2D but am not sure about the 2D build.

Yeah - you're right Mark. I missed those. I have 614579 as 71-71. That's a known car recorded as 02D build. Doug believes it's real so I'm withdrawing my "fake"!!!

It would be nice to have the last 2 digits on the trim tag to match it with a car. I've left 2 messages since Friday with Leonard who has the Yenko items including the tag, no response.

Tag is a repo. Not real. Correct body #. This tag has been discussed here before. Its in the database here. 219730.I posted the eBay auction on this several years ago. I won the auction. Discussed it with the seller. He sent me a pic of car this tag came off of. He gave me the impression that it was a real trim tag. Back of tag is super clean as new. Also tag has style trim. This Yenko body # is without style Trim.
