Yenko Information

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Probably not, I bought it in '96 - so I'm going on 11 years now I finished the resto in June of '01 - our first baby was due in Sept of '01, so that provided the incentive to get it done I lived in an apartment in Hatboro when I bought it, kept it there for a few months before finding space in Perkasie where I did the resto. So, I have never driven it in the Philly area - although I did my share of street racing and cruising on the Blvd, front st, red lion rd, woodhaven, etc...

Hi Marlin,

I'm with ya. For us once we had our kids the cars went on the back burner (the business and family come first, cars and golf second). Maybe that is why for the past 10 years the Yenko has been driven about 20 miles a year. I did a little on Front Street with the Yenko (nobody wanted to run it) but did many nights at all of the favorite Philadelphia spots with my RAM AIR GTO. I am now 45 so I guess many of those nights were before your time (late 70's until late 80's)

Well thanks for the update. Now I am just waiting to see if Nazareth Motorcars comes up with a VIN to verify if he once owned my car. How cool would that be?

So Marlin, after you got the car was there just an old beat up Deuce sitting in the parking lot of the apartment? What a cool sight that would have been!

Hi guys, I think Karen Chev could have sold the original owner (Pa. resident) the car on the c.o. If that is correct then that car would have had a Pa. title untill at least 1973. I've been distracted lately. Hopefully, I'll be able to continue looking for the V.I.N.

Yep! Then some old ladies ratted me out, and the apt management got on my case. I had it all covered up though, most tenants just thought it was my previous '72 SS Nova - but it was sold to fund the purchase I'll dig out a pic.

I'd like to see that pic myself!
