Re: Hugger Orange Yenko at Mecum, Fl.

As I recall that is just a made up car from a junk body out of a junkyard. All smoke, mirrors and tall tales. I'm surprised Mecum is letting them list it as something other that a clone.

Total BS. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

"was used to establish the proper order for the Yenko assembly run..."

Re: Hugger Orange Yenko at Mecum, Fl.

It's a made up car with a made up story. No real paperwork.

This document says it all. The only problem is that the Sheriff's office missed it. When there is no result on an NICB search there are usually two possibilities:

1) That NICB never received the manifest from that particular assembly plant. Which has been known to occurr, especially for some Chrysler plants.

2) The VIN on the car was "created" at a later date.

The 1969 manifests from Norwood were delivered to NICB, as evidenced by several Camaros around that VIN being documented. They wouldn't have "lost" one car from the production list. If it was destined for Chevrolet itself, it would have had the code for Chevrolet. My old 69 Z11 was a Chevrolet Public Relations car and its NICB destination was listed as a Chevrolet Zone with a particular internal zone designation number.
