Yep, you can still get paint from the original codes. Welcome to the site, I'm sure many on here are "pulling for you", I know I am! Finding the VIN number in any old paperwork would aid in the search. If your parents auto insurance company is still around, they may have the old records.

'

WW stuff Den also totally understandable why you're here!
Is the Plate # known or legible in pics also any chance it could help gain the Vin from your State Vehicle licensing group?
Long shot too but it may also be worth inquiring w/ them about past vehicles registered in your father's name?
Please share anything more you can as there's lots of great eyes/ears here who'd love to help.
If you're up for some reading, here's a great thread w/ member looking for another Minnimen sold Supercar, a '69 Yenko Camaro...

First of all, welcome to the site. Second, do you have the means to buy a 69 Yenko Nova?

Now not sure if anyone else looked, but under the 1969 Nova supercars, there is a Noca that looks just like these pictures? Red blk vinyl top no stickers.

Good luck, maybe your dad saved some old papers, financing, payment book, something that would have the VIN.

Lol...no I cannot afford to buy this car as a yenko nova. I am aware how much these cars are and how rare they are
The car im looking g for was pieced out the Power plant was gone. Most likely the car is gone. Dad was 19 when he had the car. There was no way he new like everyone else the car would be worth so much. I love cars and have done alot already to find this car. This was a shot in the dark talking about it on this forum . If I wanted it for money I would not have come on here. I most likely will find a 68 or 69. Tail lights match model years are the same. and build a replica. All good thanks dudes
