Default E-Bay '69 Yenko Disguised As a Z-28 Clone!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT
Anybody else catch this 1969 Z/28 clone that turned out to be a real Yenko in disguise? This one really came in under the RADAR! It's on the list of '69 cars. I bet the new owner is in a frantic rush to pick the car up before the seller is bombarded with higher offers to not sell the car to the winning bidder!

Chris, I saw that thread too and couldn't make out what the fella was saying (total of 2 posts, both by same guy are gone now), something like &quot; I took my mother to an appointment and came back and my car was sold - good luck to the new owner!&quot; Can't remember his user name but had about 62 posts and name began with an &quot;n&quot;.

Sorry!...I posted earlier. I spotted this car Saturday and tried to get contact info that evening and all day Sunday. I should have been on the phone first thing this morning, but I had family business concerning my mother. When I returned home the car was sold! I exposed the car here as a knee jerk reaction to missing my oportunity. Shortly afterward I called and asked Rob to delete my posts on the off hand chance that the new owner did not know what he bought. The dogs have been unleashed and I am sure the feeding frenzie has begun.....sometimes I can be my own worst enemy!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to the new owner!!!...call me if you want sell it for what you paid!!

neatss

I just returned from inspecting the car. It is not sold and the vin tag does not match the body stamps. The owner is a great guy and is honest as the day is long. He bought the car in March and he just wanted to drive it for the Summer and then re-sell it. To him, it was just a Z28 clone with great paint and a great sound. Right now, he just wants to get his 25k back out of the car. Frankly, 25k is a stretch - except for that pesky vin tag and the original 140 mph inst carrier. If anyone wants to buy the car and then try to find the original body - contact me. The body vin is 587974 - finding that car may provide a clue to where the orignal body is. The owner isn't a car guy and doesn't want to be bugged with a lot of questions that he can't answer. There's nothing in it for me - just trying to help a friend. Maybe you folks out there in the SYC community feel the same way. Thanks, bergy
