Tom: I am guessing there are some threads about your car. Any chance you can provide some links? I would like to know about the engine, tires, gearing, rear suspension mods etc. Killer shots of a killer car. </div></div>

One of 25 Forest Green Yenko Deuces, part of the first group of 1970 Novas ordered by Yenko Chevrolet. #41 out of 175 Yenko Deuces, sold new by Central Chevrolet, Cleveland, Ohio.

With a little over 2000 miles on the odometer, and other tell tale signs, obvious the car was put on the drag strip early on in its life and has remained there ever since. The history of the car is still being research, but we do know it was first raced in the Cleveland, Ohio area, then later on, in and around Columbus, Ohio. In 1990 the car was the NHRA Division 3 “Super Street” winner. In 1996 the car was listed for sale in National Dragster for $8500.00, selling to a bracket racer near Pittsburgh, PA. Doug Perry, a member on here, found and helped me purchase the car. As far as I can tell, I am the 4th owner.

Except for the fiberglass front end and rear decklid, rest original sheetmetal, including floors, dash, firewall, core support, quarter panels, etc. Mostly original interior including dash cluster, door panels, headliner and trim. Rear quarter panels enlarged for tire clearance. NHRA approved rollbar, Lexan glass.
