And yes his restoration guy did go nuts. It's pretty funny when he stars ranting about that stuff.

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Anyone know of any pics of Reggie Jacksons '73 Nova on the net? I'd love to see that!

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Everything you say was wrong was. I am not saying it was him (Dave). Everyone that has bought a car out of that collection has needed the same stuff. I think that is they way Carl wanted his stuff? The bottom of the car needed some rust repair. All driveline components were wrong except rear. Interior as you said. We added the hood stipes as we felt they should have been there. Replaced a fender as I dont belive in patchwork. Put the SS wheels on it. Rubber floor mat. Got rid of all the silver cad plating. ETC, ETC, ETC. Still needs some interior, but the duece panels are gone. We put the car in Floys museum and Reggie made a big offer on it so it sold when Dick was selling some cars.

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Please educate me. What is the problem with Reggie's 73 Nova ?

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

The only "problem" that I know of with Reggie's '73 Nickey Nova is that I don't own it! https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/wink.gif I have yet to see a Nickey Nova (heck, I've only saw a couple of TRUE Nickey cars anyway!), and would LOVE to see some more info on the car. Isn't he out your way (on the left coast)? Have you seen his collection?

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Ahhh, OK. No I have not seen his collection yet. He does have my old SJ 455, 4 speed Grand Prix though.

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Here is another link to pictures of the Nickey, and also the Yenko in this discussion. For what its worth, I have the assembly manual for the 69 Nova, and the assembly instructions for L48, L34, and L78 all point to instructions for adding the SS trim. Including the hood. But thats just the instructions, who knows if they were always followed or not.

Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
 

Keith;
I don't know of any 'build' sheets in the Novas, however, there are several '70 Yenko Novas with their Broadcast Sheets. Unfortunately, these don't look anything like the '69 Chevelle Build Sheets which show the COPO numbers, special engine/rear codes, and on Yenko Chevelles are stamped 'Yenko' at the bottom.

The '70 COPO/Yenko Nova broadcast sheets do not have any engine code on them, even though they were spec'd out with an L65 engine; 350/265HP, which was later over-ridden with the LT1 via COPO 9010. Joe C. explains elsewhere on this site why the sheets show an M20 trans when the cars were really M21's. There is actually very little info on these broadcast sheets, and there is nothing on them about any COPO numbers. Makes them even more confusing to decipher.
