67 (YENKO) baldwin motion identification question

[resto4u]

Could you please post your cowl tag info? This will also help tell you what you have. Vin number could also help if it was a 67 yenko. Roger

hi, and thanks for your help- can't give you the cowl tag, because its not original, and the vin tag on the door jamb is gone someone wanted them real bad to rip those rivets out. I cleand up the top of cowl where the vin is embosed starts w/ 7N then looks like 229711 could be 717 or 777 I'll have to keep cleaning it. thanks , by the way it has vintage traction bars bolted to both monoleafs still in car.

car,s cowl is rivted but loose and the lower left corner is broken off, ( probably pryed), color code says deepwater blue w/ blue interior , car is original red -under the front fenders along cowl where it joins up to door hinges, started scratching white coat of paint off all body parts, they sprayed right over original paint w/ white coat has to be 15yrs old at least. I keep finding red underneath everything, keep on scratching I hit sheetmetal. Ever see copper tubing used from master cylinder to valve and linelock ?(old).

Without a trim tag, vin or documentation you're going to have a hard time trying to determine what it orginally was... plus you'll never be able to sell it as anything other than a non-titled roller. It sounds like a cool car for building a full-time racer out of though.

its got a vin screwed in of coarse 12337 (6cylinder), the cowl tag still could be the real deal,when I mean loose I can just pull the top back enough to see white paint like on top of the cowl, the front is sprayed black like the engine compartment, looks to never have been repainted inside, the break in the cowl tag is the very left corner not between the rivets or affecting the codes in any way, looks like someone tried to pull it off but gave up? Ma. laws are real lax on cars prior to 1970, a number, 50$ , a wait in line at the DMV equals a new title, used to free till a few years ago. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

whats the full VIN and Cowl tag info? Does the partial VIns under the cowl and near the heater blower motor match the VIN plate?

[Mr. T]

How about a picture of your 67 in question. Do you have a digital camera so you can take so pics of the cowl tag, vin# plate, maybe some shots of the disk brake setup, heater box, engine compartment, some of the interior racing options? Any pics would help. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
