Your red Deuce is not one I am familiar with any history on. Send me as much info as you have on city, bank, etc... and I'll see what I can dig up.

I have spoken to you previously on the phone about both cars and I think I'm the guy who first told you there was actually a Cortez Silver sister to the red and blue cars. Again, I researched this car heavily after I bought it trying to save as much of its' history as possible. I missed the original Peck information by just a few months. They purged their records and anything older than 10 years was recycled. The files on the red, blue and silver cars were in the stuff lost to the shredders.

I too heard the rumors of a big block. I cannot verify it and I haven't found anyone who could. I can tell you the car was an overlooked piece here in NW Arkansas. I know lots of folks who street raced in the 70's and none of them remember the car here in our part of the state. Remember though, there were no stripes on the car. If you didn't notice the Yenko emblems on the fender and deck or if you didn't see the DEUCE declas on the door panels... you'd never know it was anything special. The girl who owned it second had no interest in the collector car status and neither did the third owners. To them, it was just transportation.
