<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Black Snake</span></span> under the hood could lead to an interesting nick-name for this Deuce [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] !! The &quot;York&quot; writing on the back of the trailer supports that this Deuce is in that part of PA. Neat car, original owner. Always neat to see a well-documented Deuce NOT on the inventory list. I am sure it is on Marlin's list!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I'll have to check out the pics, this one was still with the original owner who bought it at A. R. Smith. CR with a/t, we don't have the inventory sheet for this one. Glad it has found daylight!

I see it has P/S, so it is either Yenko Stock Number: YS-107, YS-109 or YS-110.

Note the NNN decal - as Wayne was probably the first person ever to see this car way back in the early 80's in the local mall parking lot. He spoke to her, and they joined NNN for a bit. Then they dropped out of site and the car went into the trailer.

WOW! Very cool! Original woman owner, those are cool stories. Marlin, do you know any of the details of her original purchase or early owner experience?

There was a thread here YEARS ago agout the &quot;Marsha&quot; Deuce that was found in I believe IA several years back. I have been trying to find that thread for a few weeks and haven't been able for the life of me! Another cool original woman owner barn find story! I believe her and another girl friend both bought new Deuces.

I don't know the story on this one, it's been hidden away for 20 years or so. The Marsha deuce was also neat because her best friend also purchased a deuce new - a FG one! They used to park together at the meat packing plant in IA.

I got a call yesterday from a good friend that I trade and sell back and forth with, and HE is the NEW proud owner. He wamts me to see the car on Wednesday of this week. It is what everyone here says----one owner, &quot;trailer find&quot; original drivetrain, etc. My friend told me the car was re-painted once in the '80s. It had been hidden for quite some time and he knew about the car the whole time. Timing is everything in our hobby, and the stars were in align for him. Believe it or not, he has a collection of cars that are not un-like this one............original, GOOD CARS. I will give you all an update after I see it, but it seems like the &quot;cat is already out of the bag!&quot;
