Rick,
did you get any original tires with it?
what are you going to use for tires?
that is the most difficult part to find for a Yenko Chevelle

I did not want to say anything until I had them in my possession but I procured a set of 5 original dated Goodyear Wide Tread GT F70x15's along with 5 1/10/69 dated YH wheels over the weekend after a long road trip. The tires are in amazingly great shape with very low miles on them and most of the wheels are in original paint and in very good condition. They were NOT cheap by anyone's estimate but I want this car to be the best it can be.

Hey Rick, Any chance this car had torque thrust rims on it when sold by yenko?

I just checked a 325hp M20 Baltimore 69 SS build sheet and it shows BY as will in box 19. Looks like this shaft covered the gammit for Baltimore 69 BB 4speed Chevelles.
