Thats a Hurst Dual Gate console. [/ QUOTE ]Totally kills any actual Value! and how come there is only two gauges under the dash and not three?? Documentation...By who?? No mention if the L-72 is the Original Engine or Not and that Color Come on already!! Yellow Yenko Cars are like the lowest priced ones out there!! Vinyl Top to Boot! Yecch!! Everyone knows that!! and if they did not before, they do now!! I bet it does not even have the original air in the Tires...... Yeah buddy, you came to the right place to have a Car analyzed! But all Humor aside, The best thing for you to do instead of asking a "Pack of Sharks if you are bleeding", is to educate yourself on what a Yenko Car should and should not have. go and examine the car yourself. If you are not mechanicly inclined, hire a professional. Legendary Motorcars are well known and deal in High end Cars. But remember, they are selling USED Cars, Not New ones. already the Aftermarket Shifter, 2 Gauges not 3 and lack of Smog system has been detected just by viewing a couple of pictures. You need to lift the Rug and check for Rust Repair. Find out if it has the Original Engine or just a Close Match. same with the Rear and Transmission. all of these factor into what the price should be. also what is the "Documentation" they speak of? it could be a Letter from the Junkyard that sold it last year to a Restoration Facility for all we know. Is it in the YENKO Registry?? and if not, how come? gather these few facts, and then repost with the information, and you will be able to get a more Accurate idea. also the most important factor is this. Do you really like this car? Is it the one you have always dreamed of owning? Do not let those "Desires" make you turn a Blind eye to objects that may cost you money in the long term. Research this car until you are comfortable with knowing exactly what you are buying. If it has a Few Flaws and that is acceptable to you, Go for it! Good Luck. ![]()

Are you for real? [/ QUOTE ]If you are talking to me, The first half of my Post is a Rouse. The advice offered towards the end is for Real! Lest we forget that I entered this forum with a COPO That was well known a long time ago and I got drug through the Mud until I could prove it as such. But I got thick skin and always enjoy a good Mental Challenge. Others get turned off easily. Now I do not know this Car. Or the guy asking about it. Maybe he has zero knowledge and that is why he has come here seeking the advice of stranger's. It was not long ago that I was in the same position. I am only attempting to prevent yet another New Member from enduring the scrutiny that I once endured. ![]()
