Re: 70 1/2
 

Wow! That is a cool ad, never saw that one before, but several of the Yenko Deuce ad's are in the Drag Worlds and Eastern Drag News - with one or two in the National Dragster.

CamaroJoe is right on the mark, the dealer lists in the old ad's were dynamic and never the same. I believe that the list may have actually changed based on the size restrictions of the individual ad. Just because a dealer was on a particular list does not mean that they sold any Yenko cars, and like Schoneye said, some dealers sold several Deuces and were rarely on a list.

Shaver is on several lists, but I have no records of any Deuces being sold from there. R&S is on several lists, and I know of at least 2 Deuces sold from that dealer. Mancuso Chev is also on several lists, and we know they sold at least 2 Deuces - one of which is back with the original owner. BTW Stefano, just because Mancuso is on a list of dealers doesn't confirm a verbal recollection of a non-Yenko copo Nova. Nice stretch [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img]

I find the stripe design in this ad especially interesting, it helps corraborate a theory of mine that I have been researching for a couple of years now. I have to go buy a digital camera and take some pics of some cars soon, but I think I'm on the right track!

Thanks Kim, good find.
