From the ad: <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">A period photo of the car shows that it deceptively displayed “396 Cu. In.” lettering on the front fenders, causing more than one competitor to wonder why they could never catch it. What they did not know was that Lancaster had removed and stored the Yenko engine and replaced it with a specially built dual tunnel-ram 427 CI unit for competition. Lancaster showed great foresight in also removing and storing the original interior components for posterity.</div></div>
