Default 1968 Yenko Camaro RS/SS YS-8035 Barrett Jackson

I just posted this in the Auction Section, but I also wanted to post it in this General Discussion so everyone is aware. It is up for sale at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale 2025.

Buyer Beware. I purchased YS-8035 at Mecum Glendale 2023. I found out after the auction it was a rebody. Mecum took the car back and required the seller to repurchase. Barrett's ad states, "the original restoration required utilizing body and cowl sections from another Camaro, eliminating some original confidential VIN numbers." Needless to say, it is a little more than that. There is little out there on this car as it has purportedly been owned by the same family for 40+ years. The car has some of the best Yenko documentation I've seen, but don't be misled by the paperwork. I hate to discredit anyone's car, but a rebody is a rebody. If anyone has questions, please ask!

Seems like the Barrett-Jackson description of the car is much better than Mecum's
