Default Re: chrome & black Yenko badges???

As far as my bro's photographic records show, these weren't used at all until 1970. They didn't have pins on the back like the 69 painted emblems, and were chrome plated. They attach using double faced tape. The Deuces used these emblems, but had the centers painted red white and blue instead of the black. (different than the non chromed 69 versions with pins.) I guess it would be possible for a 70 Deuce or 2 to slip through with black and chrome emblems by mistake, (Marlin might know) but these were SUPPOSED to be reserved for the "regular" cars and trucks Yenko sold... They used these for many years throught the 70s, and I've seen them on everything from farm trucks to station wagons. There are also at least 2 different casting runs of these, with very slight differences in the "Yenko" typeface.
