I guess the key is, does any one know for sure, if, after Bill took the Orange Yenko back to the dealership, was the “blown” motor replaced, or repaired? In talks with Bill he assumed it was replaced, but once he had the Yellow Yenko, how the Orange car was repaired was of no concern to him.

I have forgotten more important things that happened more recently but I thought Bill said he put a window in the block of the Orange car.

That's what Bill told me when I asked him what "blew the oranges' engine" meant.
Said he was a careless teen who didn't break the engine in properly and floored the hell out of it.
