Default Is this a real YENKO?

Can someone tell me if this is a real Yenko, since it's not on the vin list at this site.

Its on the list...no dealer listed, no transmission listed,color is unknown it says, possible green or blue (looks like its blue!)... This looks like it may be the car that was on the cover of MCR a few years ago, judging by the lack of rocker panel moldings. Who's is it?

And a supposed COPO and Thunderbolt up this week as well. Now THAT's a collection. Someone must know of this guy and his cars. Looks like a lot of other interesting iron in that building.

Could very well be... looking at the pics, its quite easy to believe the car has been repainted/color changed. Pretty p*ss poor descriptions I might say.

I called this guy two days ago to ask him about this car... I looked on Eds site and it said ralley green, but on this site it says fathom green/lemans blue. I asked the guy what the body tag said and it was coded 71/71 with 711 trim... I say it has the right VIN and right color to be a Yenko and one that has some messed up paperwork... Cool car, Mark

There was a Blue auto for years around here that was a green car with a trim tag swap. It was for sale a couple times at Hot August Nights. If it is the same car the two drain plugs on the top of the firewall are completely hidden by a slurry of silicone sealant that has been painted Lemans Blue. Ask the seller for a pic of that area or ask if the drain holes are there.
