GOING Price On NOVAs 69-70???

[NEW]

I was also thinking that the 80¨s US K!, was high.

Could it be that those prices have been seen?

There is only one Yenko Deuce that has traded hands in excess of approx. $55k. That is not to say that other cars would not sell in that range, but rather other Deuces in the 'Top 10' category just have not been offered for sale. At least 9 of the top 10 cars have become fairly attached to their owners, even though every one of them could make a very nice profit on them.

Within the last year at least 15 Yenko Deuces have changed hands! Of those 15, 2 were restored, 3 were restored but are being re-restored, and 10 were projects. The avge selling price of these 10 project cars is $22,900. Following normal statistical practices, removing the highest and lowest values and re-averaging, would change the avge selling price to $21,875. Not a big change since the highest value was pretty high, and the lowest was pretty low!

Additionaly, of these 10, 7 were new finds within the last 2years. There have been additional new finds within the last 2 years, but they just haven't been sales.

That is Good Information.Thank You for sharing that.
Of the 175 1970 Yenko Deuces produced,how many are know to still exist?
I see on COPO.com 98 Deuces show a Dealer Name & address.Does that mean this is the current number known about today?

Rick;
Not really, the info on Ed's site is from Yenko's Inventory Sheets that we have collected, and from info from cars found on those sheets we're missing. So, those 98+/- cars listed do not represent cars found/not found.

To date, there are 81 Yenko Deuce Novas found, 11 totalled out, and 2-3 that are existing but I don't have the owner confirmation yet. Of the 81 existing cars, 11 (6%) are with original owners.

Those 81 cars break down as follows:

Cortez Silver: 10 = 40% of production
Fathom Blue: 15 = 43% of production
Citrus Green: 5 = 50% of production
Forest Green: 18 = 72% of production
Gobi Beige: 6 = 24% of production
Sunflower Yellow: 5 = 50% of production
Huggar Orange: 6 = 60% of production
Cranberry Red: 16 = 46% of production

I have the info split many ways, so let me know if want further statistics.

M don't want to get to technical on ya but how many auto & 4 speeds produced.

What is the trans breakdown for found cars?

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Ha! That's easy.

Of the 175 Yenko Deuces produced, there were:

Four speeds: 122 produced, with 61 (50%) existing.
Automatics: 53 produced, with 20 (38%) existing.

For individual colors the breakout is as follows:

C.Silver; 8=4sp & 2=a/t
F.Blue; 11=4sp & 4=a/t
C.Green; 4=4sp & 1=a/t
F.Green; 12=4sp & 6=a/t
G.Beige; 4=4sp & 2=a/t
S.Yellow; 4=4sp & 1=a/t
H.Orange; 5=4sp & 1=a/t
C.Red; 13=4sp & 3=a/t

WOW! You and Rick P. are both walking encyclopedias!!

[hvychev]

Thanks Marlin. That puts an entirely different spin on things and seems to be more realistic. Although Deuces are one of the last affordable supercars there has been a huge "hype" created on what they have been selling for. That is why I made the comment of who has actually paid 80K for a Deuce. Deuce values have been WAY overinflated by a few people that have created a false market on what they have been selling for.

Marlin,

I'd like to place an order for a Cortez Silver, Auto, in average, unrestored condition. I'll bring $23,000 cash to York and expect to load the car in my trailer and head back to Illinois. My offer is based on your 'average' price for a project car, and I'm throwing in the extra hundred bucks as a finders fee just'cause I'm a nice guy.

See ya this summer!

There is a CS a/t deuce in avge, unrestored, condition out there, ( a lot closer to you than you realize!). However, the owner does not want to be found. Another CS a/t deuce is in need of a full resto, but it's not for sale - apparently missing it's tags!

I'll keep an eye out for you, but remember there were only 8 CS a/t Deuces produced. No need for a finders fee - I do this for fun
