Default Appalachia rotter Yenko

Anybody know anything about a legit 69 Yenko Camaro rotting into the ground in eastern KY?

Friend of mine says he knows of one,said that his dad said it's been sitting there as long as he can remember.

He's gonna get me pics and I will post them.He said it had a tree growing through it and it was rotted to the ground.


Will post pics when I get them.

There was a well-known Fathom Green/auto sitting off Highway 51 here in WI. Sat outside in the mud for years; gone now.

Maybe the story lost something over time.

I'm guessing the tags are gone off of it. Would be nice to see a pic of the hidden vin if they are.

Jason, there was another thread with pics of the car. It looks like I linked it in that old thread but now it doesn't work. Darn, I wanted to see those pics again....

Here's the email I got from the local guy:
<span style="font-style: italic">
Theres no doubt its real i was talking to dad and he said its been there as long as he can remember. It would just be a vin tag pretty much last time i seen it there really was a tree about an inch round growing up threw it. Hes got a sting ray sitting in the carport with 12 miles on it and its covered in car parts starters shit like that. Dad say hes got a copo aluminuim 427 car. And a 302 z28 that my uncle bought new a bunch of crazy shit like that. I dont think u can see the yenko good enough from the road to tell what it is. But i will take some pics and email the to u so u can post em i aint figured out how to from my cell that wat i use to get on the forum. I can buy stuff of this guy but most cant he weird and its not a junk yard if u say junk or junk yard u will leave. U will see what it is. If i bought the yenko i would take the vin tag and leave its that bad.</span>
