No need to 'stay out of it', I was just curious why you have such a specific interest in 'the list' and wanted it changed.

JeffH: As of right now, altering the list of vins is the last thing on our minds. The car's heritage is front & center, and documenting the chain of events takes priority.

In all honesty, I'm not sure the list will get changed. This car made it onto the list of 37 because of something, it was not put there by us - but by Yenko. So, we are trying to figure out what the process was in '69 to get certain cars included in this group vs. others. We have known all along that some cars were not converted, but how would we know which ones? We don't even have all 37 numbers, so if the 'later' ones were non-converted how would we know which ones were the 'later' ones. We are not about to guess which ones. This is consistent with other years/models that have unconverted situations. We don't guess, (and * ), which '68 Yenko Camaro's are non-converted, nor which '68 Gibb/Harrell Novas were non-converted. We simply offered the list of numbers as we had them, and please note: the listing of '69 Yenko Novas does not say that they are all 427's, it only says that they are Yenko Novas. There was actually a method to the madness during the years of assembling all that info!
