Yenko corvette

[Mike]

Anybody know if that car spent some of its life in the Syracuse area? BEST was from Syracuse and I vividly remember a car from my youth that looked very similar.

The car was certainly not as fresh as when it was completed by Nabers Motors. It was owned by a collector in Dallas and he's the one that had it restored. His cars are always stunning and he's owned (and owns) some amazing stuff.
I was a bit disappointed in it's condition when I saw it in Phoenix in January. It looks like it has been driven, that's OK, but it was not at all crisp. Had blue streak radials on it for driving.

I didnt think Yenko made a corvette, I know he raced them and prepared some. Phil

It's a Corvette that was ordered from Yenko Chevrolet. Nice colors and options, but it had no special treatment from Yenko. I believe the Warranty Plate was signed by Don Yenko as the salesman and it's the real deal Warranty Plate.

Thanks for all the good info & input. I am sure one will surface someday. THANKS again Wayne.

Don Yenko was pretty crafty. He figured out how to get the factory to drop a Corvette motor into that car. Instead of using the COPO system to order the car, he used something called the RPO system.
