My mistake. I thought the wheels with the chrome three spoke shroud in the center was also called a deluxe wheel, and the above was the N30 deluxe wheel, as opposed to the standard wheel that had no shroud.

There was a Red '68 Yenko at A&B auto parts in Waycross Ga a few yrs ago. I heard the owner traded it for a restored Pace Car & the 68 might be in the midwest. Doesn't Gary H have a Red, unrestored 68? Could that be the same car

It does look like it has an extra hole in the inst cluster for the Tach foot and also on the firewall there looks to be a screw where the sending unit would be. Sure would be nice to get a NICB report...

And expecting the MM tag is genuine, it was a Copo 9737 even before Yenko put his magic to it..

Does anybody have pictures of that car? Didn't the nephew of the owner put it on ebay a few years ago? I heard that someone checked it out.

I believe Gary had a red 68 at one time. Not sure if it's still there, or not.
