That could be one heck of a buy if that is the actual VIN for the car. The car will obviously need a complete restoration to return it to a Yenko, but that's wild!

Just put the Yenko Paint scheme back on it and make it a Yenko Pro Street Car.... Cool...

I would say there is something wrong. Look at the next to last bid. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Does Mark Hassett have the real 124379N614924 Yenko? or am I missing something in the translation here? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

According to the records we keep, the VIN is registered to a 4-speed HO AM Y Camaro sold out of Bresee Chevrolet in Syracuse NY. This car would share the same VIN with Hassetts. The Mayor called me in a panic over this VIN. He knew the VIN was a Yenko, but crossed it to Hassetts with the records I shared with him. He even tried to contact Mark before the end of the auction. I clicked on the item with just over a minute to go. We figured it was worth a shot if the VIN is real. If not we would walk. This whole thing lasted a minute. We did not get the car. The question remains why does this car share a Yenko VIN with another car? This car is in NY, and so was Bresee. I hope for Marks sake it was a misprint. The money on the car was at a little over 5k for what is not a very good car. I pushed it to over 8700.00 and did not touch it. I wonder if the high bidder knows its a Yenko VIN too...BKH : [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I can't believe someone would copy a Yenko vin and think they could get away with passing it off as real? If Mark has the verification from Cunneen I would have to say his is the real deal! I don't think they could possibly make a mistake at the factory and stamp two vins with the same number? But I guess anything is possible. I think more than likely the vin was printed wrong on the e-bay car.
