Yenko Optional Twin Sport Mirrors

[camarojoe]

While most cars did not get the mirror option, I have seen several that have, as well as the Dixco gauge pack and the 3 spoke cushion grip steering wheel. Marlin will chime in with his data, as I'm sure he has records of all this... I know many of the Colonial cars had additional equipment, including the mirrors, but some didn't, I think it was basically a matter of what the dealers checked off on the order blanks. The network dealers used an order form to select any additional options they wanted... I have a blank one around here somewhere i think, but I'm pretty certain the dual rear spoilers and hood scoop were items that never actually made it on any cars, at least none that i know of... the car in the sales flyer has the scoop on it, but it was a pre-production car that wasnt even really a COPO, and was actually a dressed up 250 6 cylinder car that Don put together before the LT-1 cars were even built or delivered to him. Marlin, do you have any info on option breakdowns for the Deuces in the registry?

I think there may be one showing up soon with that optional hood scoop.

I know that all of the known Fencl Tufo cars had options like gauges and fat grip wheels.

Bingo.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

The scoop is the Hurst Rebel Machine version, the twin sport mirrors are the Hurst Olds/ScRambler version, the shifter is the Hurst #4177 Pontiac GTO bench seat version, the second order of cars were shipped to Hurst - most likely for conversion. The Deuces have a major Hurst connection.

To our knowledge, no COPO Deuces received the hood scoop or twin rear spoiler (CalCustom item) options.

As for the sport mirrors, more cars received them than I thought. Here is a quick breakdown of most of the options:


Based on actual data from the 175 produced:

Auto Trans = 53/175 produced; 30%
Power Steering = 48/175 produced; 27%
Custom St.Wheel = 33/175 produced; 19% (Extrapolated)
Twin Sp. Mirror = 26/175 produced; 15% (Extrapolated)
Instrument Group= 11/175 produced; 6% (Extrapolated)

Based on the 85 Deuces found to date:

Custom St Wheel = 16 ---> 19%
Twin Sp. Mirror = 13 ---> 15%
Instrument Group= 5 ---> 6%
