Re: Yenko Emblems?
...and btw, I've never "hawked", sold or traded one of these ever, or even attempted to. I think I have 6 of 'em in my collection, all with similar stories behind them, linking them to Yenko/Deuces. I just thought they were an intriguing part of Yenko history that not many seem to know anything about, and might appriciate seeing once every 4 years or so.

Re: Yenko Emblems?
See? The original Deuce owners are already starting to wake up and take notice...
Post up some pics of that backwards striped Deuce.

Re: Yenko Emblems?
Neat story behind the emblems but Don sure could have tried a little harder to make them stand out. I think those would have been great with a much larger "LT-1" chrome letter. They almost look home made. I think your reasoning behind why they were made and never installed is a likely one.

Re: Yenko Emblems?
Sorry, didn't mean 'hawked' in the sense of trying to sell 'em, but that we've been kickin around with them trying to figure out the application! I know you've never tried to sell 'em, 'cause I would've bought a pair!
 One story I heard a looong time ago was that they were a motion item for the vegas, but that didn't quite make sense when we found out that a set was found in the glovebox of a Deuce. I think the fender application sounds quite plausible. Are they in the parts catalog?
