I will take over the payments from Snowball on the 69 Baldwin Motion Phase III Camaro.

These are great, thanks for posting Pete!

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

So, the sad news about the Yenko Chevelle is that a Garnet Red Yenko Chevelle from Marshall Chev in Reading, PA was indeed titled to a Frank Curry in Shenandoah, PA in '74. It is very likely this car, and the word is that it eventually became a dirt track car. The engine was apparently out for rebuild at a machine shop in the Scranton, PA area where it remained until about 10 years (+/-) ago when it popped up on EBaY. I believe 427King in CT bought it, and still has it.

The 'black' Deuce is very likely Jerry Albert's Deuce in Cedar Rapids, IA. This Deuce is actually a Gobi Beige car, with a/t but no p/s. It is unique in that it came factory with some body moldings. The car was 'injured' early in it's life, painted black and sold. Once discovered 25+ years ago, it was painted Daytona (?) Yellow, and has been enjoyed since!

Joe Oldham and his son Scott Oldham (editor at Edmunds.com) built a replica of his Motion Camaro that got stolen. I'd love to see how it came out. Scott and I conversed via email a couple months back and I referred him this site but I've never seen if he joined or not.

My dad was an insurance adjuster in Pittsburgh through the 60's-90's and worked at Yenko's bodyshop for many years appraising cars there, and my sister bought her first Camaro at the Rt 19 location. Those old ads bring back many memories of checking out the Sunday paper for deals even though I was just a dopey kid at the time.
