Could be, but he got 56 bids, Where do these people come from. If he has such a rare car you think he would have done his homework and found out just how many "Yenkos" were out there and that they did come with the motors in them, and how much they are going for.........DORK!

What the heck is a "Tic-Tac-Toe" gauge package? Does he mean "Tick-Tock-Tach"?

Nice looking car.

Well the way the market is going he proablly figured he'd catch someone sleeping and trick someone into buying a undocumented yenko, then pull a Shultz when the guy finds out it's bogus.

Looks to me that this guy bought a restored big block car and just tossed this engine in. No pictures of building the car but lots of installing the engine.

Here is the email I got back from him asking him whether he was trying to mislead someone or just misinformed. What do you make of this?

Yenko had several different blocks done , one was a marine application, after 2 years of research i found that this is a Can-Am block, 496 cu. in. with siamese cylinders, no where in that description do i imply this was a Yenko car or that this engine came in this car, in fact in bold letters it states otherwise. By the way these blocks were cast by Winters.

I think the guy is a tool! How could someone be that stupid to bid that high? I think that he is leading people in the wrong direction. By the way, this may be a stupid question but Yenko never mad a ZL1. Am I correct?
