Default Re: Goldberg has a '68 Yenko?

Someone let me know when a 1963 250L starts coming down in price so I can get rid of one of these crappy yenkos.

Didn't he outbid Kevin S. for the "Lawman" Super Boss 429 at B-J 2003? I thought that was the story of him calling in from Japan?

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, the article explains the story of him purchasing the lawman, while he was in Japan, through a phone call to his Georgia based broker. Supposedly Goldberg had learned about the "Lawman" for the first time by watching a history channel special highlighting the car only a week or so before it popped up at the 2003 Barrett Jackson. His broker thought he may be interested in it and phoned him in Japan, he apparently was willing to be the high bidder on the car whatever it took. The car supposedly shows 750 miles on the clock. Goldberg explains in the article that the Lawman is currently on loan to a museum near Pigeon Forge, TN and that he hasn't even seen it in person yet, but that he "needs to go see it." He bought the '68 Yenko Camaro and a '70 Camaro Trans Am racer over the phone at the same auction. The article doesn't say anything further about those two cars.

Goldberg was just in town here filming his new movie. I supplied him with some of the cast for it. They all said he was a great guy and treated them great. I guess he was telling one of the guys i know who was his stunt double that he can make 5 times the money that he makes here if he wrestles in japan. So thats what he does now wrestles a few months in japan and makes movies.

There is an interview with Goldberg in the newest edition of Rides Magazine (April/May 2005). Some of the cars he has: 70 Cuda 440 6 pack, 70 Hemi Challenger Convertible, Shelby GT 500, 69 Hemi Charger R/T, 70 black Trans Am race car. He also mentions that he has a 68 Camaro that they only made 7 of, the Yenko? And then he says he thinks they only made 13 of in 69? I'm sorry I don't have a scanner or I would post a copy of it. The article is not worth buying the magazine for.

You have been given the buy signal. Now is a good time to purchase a Lusso.

Right now I'm watching Goldberg talking about Muscle and Super car's on the History Channel showing a couple of '69 Yenko Camaro's and the history of Don Yenko. He also tells the story of the Lawman Boss 429 and they show him riding in the car at the dragstrip. Great show.
