Default Re: Yenko Nova

After following this thread for the better part of 3 weeks, I e mailed Linda and asked if she'd mind if my brother and I came out to see the car. I explained that neither of us were potential buyers, and would completely understand if they didn't want bothered with us coming around on their day off, but she told me that was not to be of any concern, and stated that they would be happy to have us visit and take a look at their car. She and her husband Earl are both nice folks, and a pleasure to talk to. The car is a very cool piece, and looks alot better in person than in any pics I've seen or have taken. While it does need a complete resto, Its one of the better unrestored cars I've seen to date, and is very complete. I don't know what the car is "worth", and I'm not even gonna enter into that debate, but it was definitely neat to see a real Yenko car that prowled my area "back in the day". It was also cool to be able to talk to the original owners of a car I have so much interest in. Both had some great stories to tell and were more than happy to let us pick their brains about details of the car, and the history of it from day 1 to present. I sincerely hope this Deuce finds a good home someday, and once again wish to thank Earl and Linda Roof for their hospitality.
