Yeah. Much like 99.9% of all customers who walked into Yenko Chevrolet to buy a car he was propositioned to upgrade to something that would increase Yenko's sales margins. He declined...twice. Does that make it one of the non-converted cars, no.

The reason I asked for thoughts was I felt like the OO was not aware of the supercar conversion until it was offered to him as an add on. Just because it was offered doesn't mean that it was originally intended to be one before his purchase.

“I always knew about the 69 Novas from Yenko and how special they were,” he said.

The value of the car has not been precisely determined, but Patrick estimates that it is worth anywhere from $250,000 to $1 million. Because the car has been off the streets since 1978 and has only one owner, it may have a higher value.

“I may be undervaluing it,” Patrick said. “There is a big following now for these original cars.”

Ok , the Yenko dealer adds value but what about the engine , according to the video was replaced under warranty wouldn’t that bring the value down on the car versus a car with its original engine?
