Does it have the original MV code 396 engine?

Does it have the large front sway bar?

Any signs of a Yenko YS door jam tag or Yenko crest emblem on the tail panel?

Hi Joe,
It has a 69 dated engine with a CE stamp currently in it. It does have the large front sway bar.

I love the story of the unconverted L78's. I remember the story of the one that was dealer traded to, I think, Kenny Ross. To everyone, it was just a leftover L78. I think I'd rather have one of those, than a converted Yenko.
