Charley, I think Kevin had Ricky Smith restorations in Ararat Virgina re-restore this car to the highest caliber, and in my conversations with Randy Miller he admitted that these cars would need some freshing up in the next few years, even though being in a climate controlled garage the entire time since Randy restored them. I never saw the Rallye Green Yenko S/C Nova outside of the garage, when he built his new house, whick was only 3 miles from his old house the car was hauled in a enclosed trailer, so in short, yes its the same car, and a awesome car at that! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/" alt="" />

Ricky Smith Restorations of Ararat, VA., did not do a complete resto on the car. he went through the car front to rear and corrected a few items. we replaced the front grille with a 69 NOS grille, corrected the headlight eyebrows, ( thanks to brian henderson) and corrected a few bolts here and there, painted beneath the cowl screen the right color, replaced the tach, detailed the rocker panels, and still have a few items left between jobs. If ricky weren't so backed up with other supercars i could get it finished to my liking, although its close. 1 of 7 i'll take my time!
