Charlie,



I know the car fairly well...I was one of the potential buyers. I spoke to Warren, (the guy that holds the paperwork for the 67 Yenkos) On multiple occasions Warren looked for paperwork on that car and could not find anything to verify that it was a 427 conversion. The only thing that could be confirmed was that it was modified and that it being an actual 427 conversion was mere speculation...hence I passed on the car.

The paperwork that was available revealed receipts that total far less than it would have cost for the car to be a bonafied 427 conversion...the receipts were par with a modified as opposed to a 427 conversion

Perhaps the paperwork miraculously fell out of the sky indicating the car as a 427 conversion as opposed to a modified car...

It seems that you have bad information. The original paperwork clearly shows that this is a 450hp conversion, as well as a few other interesting items.

Confirmation by the original owner and the original Fred Gibb salesperson are nice too.
