Default Re: Yenko Deuce question

The Deuces came with the steel XT wheels of which 4 were converted to Motor Wheel Customs that Yenko bought directly from Motor Wheel. The spare is still the XT. Yenko was known to trim off a few conversion options if he could, and one original Deuce owner had to complain about his Deuce not having the SS wheels like the advertisement stated. Yenko did convert the wheels, but just tossed the 'Y' center cap decals on the front seat leaving the Magnum 500 wheel centers uncovered. If there were any Deuces that came without the wheels, I'd suspect they were sold new at Yenko. However, to date, we are not aware of any Deuces that came new with XT's

The Deuces were not SS cars and thus none of them came with an SS hood. The optional hood treatment was the Hurst scoop as used on the Hurst Jeepster and AMC Rebel Machine cars.

What is the Virginia Beach Red Deuce?
