James Spencer's accident happened in Chicago. Wreck was brought back to Canonsburg and was behind garage for a couple of years then sent to salvage yard.

Bauer;
I have heard that as well. Donna Mae told me it was on Rt. 19 in Canonsburg, John Durago (sp?) told me it was in Chicago. I show two Deuces wrecked, maybe both stories are true?? I'll keep searching!

Marlin, I personally saw a Deuce dropped into a crusher in San Ysidro Ca in 1982, just north of the Mexican border were that guy shot up the McDonalds. The car was smacked and stripped, I had thought about saving it but figured it wouldnt be worth the cost of fixing it. Am I kicking myself? Yes, everytime I hear the word Deuce. Sorry Guys.

Marlin, when we were talking in Pottstown that night I didn't tell you that I personally saw a Fathom Green Motion tuned L78 1970 Nova dropped in the crusher(actually a backhoe bucket did it ) in the past year. I tried to buy the car MANY times but he would not sell it . it still had original quarters and you could still make out the Motion stickers on the rear quarter windows. I did make off with the BE coded rear housing. I hated to see the special radiator support go also. did they only use that in 69-70? :-( ,
If you get a chance find out from your Vineland buddies who used to run the Cumberland County Fairgrounds swap meet. he's the one that wound up with one of my L-78 Novas. DAVE
