This car was for sale years ago in a specialty car store in Pittsburgh. Was restored the wrong color and had 1969 drivetrain. Car was moved into Florida collection. I do not believe that any improvments were made on the car since I saw it...BKH

Why would anyone restore such a rare car the wrong color with a 69 drivetrain? Don't make sense! Brian, what is the correct color for this car?

T Billigen · #14 10-05-2002, 07:22 PM

Woops, I should have read the early postings for the right color!!!!!!!!!! getting senile!

Guys RM of Canada purchased the car and probably will be running it through their auction.(per sixtiesmuscle) You can call them to find out,I don't have the number.

Cool, RM's MI store is only 3 miles away. Hopefully it will show up there and we'll see what it looks like. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Earl, it's the same car, but it's # YS8014.

Here's a current pic of it.

It's not quite a 69 drivetrain. It has a T0906CE block. (a backwards CE code? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] )
67 trans with a 68 date and the VIN stamped on it. 4.10 BV0324 axle, can't read the cast date for the year, I think it's 68.

And here's an engine shot.

As a new comer to this type of car...what kind of many would a Yenko in this shape bring? Thanks.

Kurt any word on their plans for the car?
