Yenko stripes? mmm butternut yellow!

That's what I was wondering?
Sweet looking car! I've always liked the 3rd gen Nova. Even better if it's a Yenko.

Well, its not a real Yenko, but Tommy spied the stripes and is correct!!

She is a driver quality clean and solid southern car, but has a bit of a nasty side that I will reveal soon!!

Its a dressed up 402. It really doesn't have much in the way of driveability so maybe you are right. Know anyone with that stuff? Maybe I can work a trade for my cr@p.
