Why the black crests then? Sure would be nice to know the VIN. Maybe one of the unknown Garnet Red cars.

1) It could have been repainted by 1977, which would explain the missing stripes. The emblems may also have been changed at that time. 2) This is what I was hinting at before... it may not be a garnet red car originally. What if a customer specifically wanted a cortez silver 427 Chevelle, would Don have pulled a car out of his regular inventory and converted it? This would explain the black crests on this particular car. I don’t think people were cloning Yenko cars in 1977, were they? Beat up looking with snow tires? |
