Took the Yenko stripes and badges off, lost the goofy wheels, and put on some painted steel wheels wrapped on Polyglass tires.

I love the way the car looks now!!!

No, but the prior owner put Yenko stripes and badges on it and some goofy wheel/tire combo.

I was lookimg more for the COPO look with this one.

If it were one I'd say you lost value, but I like the looks now.

I know better than to fark up a Yenko.

This car has 6,000 documented miles and a one of 427 aluminum 427 cu in. motor.

It is an investment quality car and onbe of the gems of my collection.

I knew you wouldn't do that to a real rarity, was it stock with the aluminum 427, that has to be even more rare. What a great find. BTW the Yenko's were made just 100 miles from here, in Meadville, Pa. you knew that.

Very nice Marty - a real sleeper.

How's your MM doing? Any truth to you buying another MM?

I really like the stock/sleeper look of the painted steel wheels and belted Polyglas tires.

Car looks great!! I recognize the location and Derrick's skilled hand:)
If your negotiations were successful, bring it up to Acworth today. I'm getting ready to roll the "Loveboat" out of the garage for this afternoon's cruise.

Martyo, I really dig that Nova. I agree with you on the Yenko stuff, too many "tribute" (bogus) cars out there anyway. Your Nova looks like a badass, esp with those dogdish hubcaps.
