Local Yenko Nova?

Don,

Check out some of the responses in the thread that Pete linked to Steve's Nova site above....Marlin and Schonye say that some of the '69 Yenko Novas were <span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-weight: bold">NOT</span></span> converted to 427's. All apparently started life as L78 SS396 cars, so that ***<span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-style: italic">could</span></span>*** be one of the non-converted ones at the Chrysler dealer. That ***<span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-style: italic">could</span></span>*** also explain the uber-high asking price, but he better have plenty of ironclad docs to go along with it.

Thanks Bill, I did read the pertinent posts in that thread. Your above comments seem to hit the nail on the head.

For my own knowledge, did the unconverted 69 Yenko Novas have any &quot;specific quirks&quot; to them? Were they similar to the unconverted 68 Yenko Camaros which I believe had some unique features to them that a regular L78 did not have?

Guess I'm just trying to justify the price based on the fact it may essentially be a 69 L78 Nova sold through Yenko [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]
