the above pics are NOT of the red 69 Nova discussed in this thread. I posted here in response to the flaming discussion posts on the "other" forum board about several different cars owned/restored by sYc members.

Judging by the tags, it is a '70 Nova.

Judging by the tags, it is a '70 Nova. I am guessing a Yenko Deuce.

According to the list posted on this site, it's the number for a '70 Cortez Silver Yenko Deuce.

There is supposed to be a VIN stamp by the heater fan opening too.

<font color="red">I am not an expert on this stuff by any means...but what you just pictured looks like someone welded in a metal piece with the vin stamped on it so that the car in question would be "vin matching" (Hidden and windshield locations)?

That just totally sucks...if that's what I think it is...

Could someone please put names to the faces in the picture for me. A pm or email will work if that is preferable. It's hard to follow for those on the outside.

If I'm following this correctly, this is nuts.. so Gary H bought it knowing it prob wasn't and Ed C certifies it !!!?? Early in this thread someone stated "the car has no issues" did you mean you knew it never was a 427 SYC ?

Perry I stated that. As of a week ago that's what I thought. I still think that. I was tolded years ago it may or may not be a 427 it could have been a 396. I didn't care, I had no dog in the fight and still don't. I hope this answers your question. But some Questions need answers.

Hey Kim.. thanks, I certainly agree... I have no dog in this fight but this kind of reminds me of the famous supercar man from where I grew up and the games/stories there. Shame if this turns out to be a 396 car all along not that I would'nt still say

Perry...If I'm reading this right (and if I'm not, I'm sorry and the mods can please delete this post)...the last pictures posted are of a silver deuce that was "modified" to make it numbers matching. Some of the people identified in the D.H picture above were (and are) aware of what happened. No one said anything about it until they were "caught". Now they are trying to distance themselves from the perpetrators.

It would be wonderful if this hobby didn't have all the negativity and BS that seems to constantly happen.

I think that all of this stinks...but I'm glad that my priorities are in the right place (Family, faith, friends, then job and finally cars). I WILL NOT continue to post on the negativity and constant crap that is always brought up.

I am happy that I've made wonderful friends since getting back into this hobby...and that is my main focus.

I have no knowledge of what transpired with the red Yenko Nova...so I can't say anything about it.
