All,

I talked with my Dad about this subject and he informed me I was wrong. He said the salesman he bought his car from said they sold 5 or 6 Yenkos from that dealership. Sorry for the mis-information.

All Deuces?

That's interesting. The picture I have of my deuce being unloaded at Rapids shows a transport load. The time frame on the inventory sheet makes me believe your dad's deuce was on the same transport. That's 2 outta 6. Maybe Marlin can speculate as to where the rest went.

Ken,
Any chance you and dad have thought of coming to Omaha for H&H's all Chevy show in July? Maybe if you contact H&H they would be interested in having it in the showroom on display. I know they did it last year for a 69 Chevelle SS they sold new (original owner still has it). I'd love to see the Nova again too. I'm hoping to get to Lincoln for the Car Craft show but we'll have to see.

Lewis,

We brought the Deuce and Vega up there a couple of years ago for their show. There was a beautiful black COPO Camaro in the showroom that day. Anyway, I don't think any of the sales people realized that Dad's car had been sold new there years ago so other than being a Yenko it really didn't have much significance to them. Kind of funny because he has purposely left the H&H emblem on the back ever since it was new. Maybe we'll make it up there this year. Hopefully we'll have it out for Americruise. Call me if you are coming down to Lincoln and we can get together during Americruise 402-430-9682.

Thanks,

Ken

I was at H&H the year the COPO from Crete was there. Beautiful car. How did I miss both your cars???? Hopefully you can make it again this year. If you do make it let me know and maybe we can get together at the house and do some grilling before you head back.

I'm still not sure about Americruise because my car isn't exactly highway friendly and heading back and forth each night isn't real practical either at 6 mpg running 110. I'll keep you in mind if I do decide to head down.

I learned my lesson about running high compression in a street car, Last time I bought 110 it was almost $6 a gallon.
