.... Are there an records that show what the "CE" number on the Yenko Dealer installed motors were ?

.... I know that there are records from which cars were going to be converted and were assigned a "YS"

number..... would they also have any records showing what the "CE" motor was that was installed in

each? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

.... Was this car in any of the photos or advertisements that show yenko &quot;Converting&quot; a Camaro ?

.... Who restored this gold Camaro?

.... Who bought it?

Was the axle original when you found it?

Too early for a 4P tag. That tag looks funky.

I agree, if I saw that on an auction floor I would think a jeweller or someone semi-skilled with a TIG tried to put tiny, tiny pieces in it.

This car was a nothing car as found, who knows what happened to the trim tag. With a state assigned vin anything is possible. I don't see why anyone would have cared about the tag in as found condition, it was not an expensive car. I am an experienced tig welder. It would be almost impossible to weld the thin aluminum of a trim tag with a tig welder without burning through it.
