current market of yenko camaros and chevelles..

[Charley Lillard]

The color did not look Olympic gold. It looked too light. Small issue I saw was the GM parts label still on the gas tank. They did not come off the assembly with parts # stickers on them. That is fixable in about a minute. The buyer doesn't even like the color but bought it because nobody else was stepping up and it was a Nicely done Yenko. He has tucked it in a corner of his collection and makes jokes about the color.I know other buyers there that did not bid because they had no interest in that color. I knew of the car for years as there was a guy on AOL by the name of Synthetic oil that his Dad left it to him. He got into legal trouble and sold it to pay attorneys.

Just love all the stories that you hear of a car. Going have to look at my old pictures of that car when i was up there crawling around and under it. Took 2 trips up there and meet with Steve and the countless hours back and fourth on the phone with him, had some cool old stories of that car.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: sYc</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Do not judge the value of Yenkos on that one particular sale. There were a several buyers interested in the Gold Yenko, a couple who were willing to go 250, maybe more, but they were told by the seller that it would take more then that to buy it, so they did not bother to bid </div></div>

Wasn't this a no reserve auction? answer = yes. So what difference does it make what the seller said to a prospective buyer? Something does not add up in the above statement. I think one smart buyer stepped up and that was that, and got a good deal, helped provide a datapoint in the value market for yenkos (even with a gold color). Its still a rockin 4sp. Its still a fully restored yenko. And it sold for $175K.

What a seller does, or does not say to a potential buyer can make a huge difference in selling a car, any car, even a Yenko.

Black 69,
If you think that sale is now the market for 69 Yenko's please find me another one for sale.

Some of the high end cars were down it seemed to me. Maybe people are getting tired of spending big money for these lawn ornaments. I think you could buy a few real nice cars for $250,000 even $175,000 for that matter. JMO

Don't forget he paid a 10% buyers commission, sales tax and shipping. By the time he got the car home, he was probably all-in for a little over $200K or the bottom end of the market price. The Milt Robson car brought $308 with the commission or the high end of the market. Two very different 1969 Yenko Camaros. JMO, Ed
