Re: Authenticating a Yenko
The car I asked about in the original post was back at the car lot today after work so I stopped for a closer look. I talked with the owner of the car lot. It is a clone. It is very tastefully done. The interior has Yenko emblems in the upholstery. The car is presently powered by a 396. So obviously it would need a 427 to be a truly authentic clone. Another curious auto enthusiast was there looking at it and he claimed he had a 427 that would be correct for it. He was still talking with the owner when I left. Presently it has a 10 bolt rear end in it. I figure it should have a 12 bolt. Someone in Arkansas did the work to make it into a Yenko clone. The asking price was $17,500. If anyone is interested I can post the phone # of the dealership.
