It may have been he one that Joe Grom had for sale a few years ago. Was bought as a father son project if I remember correctly. We wondered if it ever got finished. Not saying for sure this is it, but the locations make sense.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

Yes, I believe you are correct Ken. This is one that got away from me, my son was interested, but we were to late to the party.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

We were late too. By a week.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

This is Joe's old car.

Looks like this car is only about two and a half hours from me. If someone is serious and needs it looked at I will try and help.

Anyone willing to suggest a market value for a car like this?

90K-120K ? I revised my guess after spending more time looking at underhood pics.

Love the color, wish it was numbers matching, I would be all over it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

Here is the description of the dates of the motor compared to when the car was built as per the ebay ad ....

&quot;Original 1970 Yenko Deuce. Yenko stock #YS-047. Non original engine or trans. Rear end believed original with 3.55 gears. Engine replacement casting is #3970010 dated 4-1-1970 and transmission 3-3-1970. These are suitable replacements for the car as the build date of the car is 4th week of may 1970. Restoration is around 8 years old now. Milage is believed to be correct at just over 26,000. There are way too many details on the car that would take forever to type on here. All interested buyers are encouraged to inspect in person. Serious buyers please email me and I'll gladly call back to discuss further!&quot;

.... still looks like a great car to own [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

I remember discussion about the rear back when it came up for sale prior to restoration. Discussion was whether any deuces came with a different rear. If the stamping is CBW it would be the factory COPO stamp for a deuce 4.10. Any other ratio would need to be stamped on the tube. That leads me to believe the rear housing is factory correct with different internals added some time later.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

Yes, that is my understanding as well. My notes state that the rear in this car is indeed a CBW, dated 0512 G2 - exactly where it should be.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

Wow - reserve not met at 60k - what's wrong with this picture?

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

EBaY is a good for marketing, not so much at establishing market value.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

I contacted the seller, he said that he has sold the car. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
So good for him, I did not ask the price, I am sure if he wants to share he will post the price.

Re: Deuce YS 047
 

EBaY marketing! Not a bad thing for the price.
