Newguy. The car you posted looks more like a custom job done by someone in the early 80's. The side vent's in the fenders on the Yenko car are 70-73 vintage Trans Am and the red car you posted look to be 80-81 Z28. If you compare the pics the flared fenders aren't shaped the same. And the front spoiler on the car you posted is clearly some kind of molded on aftermarket piece.. I'd say you were best off not to buy that car. The putty job will probably start cracking through the paint at any time now. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img]

I was just going to post a very similar reply. The flares on the red car are more an aesthetic (objective opinion) than a functional addition. This one has really piqued my interest..and a few more by my educated guess [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] In any event, good to see more MN faces onboard.

Glad to be here, but just mostly read and learn for me. This board is very informative, and funny with a few [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] wise crackers on this board. My passion is with the novas and love hearing about some of them that were turned into supercars, and never knew they even existed. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

I've seen a camaro like that at the Annual Iola Car Show in Iola, WI. Paint was some crazy maroonish color with many, multicolored (yellow, green, etc) stripes on the rear half. Had an L-88 hood (center cut out for the blower) and the molded in fender flares. Not so sure of the genuineness of the car, but it looked OK. I wasn't really fond of the patch job they did to the flares, as they seemed like they shouldn't have been on the car. Anyone else see this car?

Does anyone know where I could get some flares like that? I'd love to get a set, at least for the back, on my car. I'm just picturing huge slicks in back, with some b*tchin flares!
