Well, do me a favor and try to look him up and go see it. I have interest but not gonna fly to Hawaii on a pipe dream. I have been there many times and am way jealous. My ex-wife grew up there. She went to Radford? I think. She was a Ramette. Her dad was Air Force.

Thanks for the pic of the deuce, car looks nice. I can't tell by looking at it if it's a new owner, or what. What state was this pic taken in? I'll have to go buy the mag [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Mag article states Ocean City Maryland for their 12th Annual Cruisin. "Maryland Madness" Thats the only pic of it by the way in case you were going to buy it in hopes for more pics.

Interesting, I met a guy at the NNN Nationals this past weekend whose friend owned one in the mid '70's, and then sold it. They were from Maryland, it was a 4speed, Fathom Blue, Lustine Chev. is in Maryland, they got Deuces...hmmmmm... Looks like I need to check it out, might be the real deal [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Situation looks good, might be adding another car to the registry [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Hopefully, I'll get to talk to the owner tonight, my contact from NNN Nationals definitely owned the Ammon R. Smith Blue deuce, and this PHR car might very well be the same car - long story!!

Have spent the last 3weeks tracking down this car, it appears to be a fake [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

However, my connection from the NNN show did indeed own the blue deuce that I had searched for approx. 4 years ago - he told me the single significant clue that was unique to this car. The car was orig. owned by the son of the president of a large paper company in York, PA, who street raced the car extensively until daddy made him get rid of it. Then it went to Maryland, then back to PA for several years, then to an auto auction, then ?????

Do you know if the Gobi Beige 70 Deuce in the July 88 issue of MuscleCar Review is still around or not. Shows the owner (Mr John Wargo) as buying it out of Yenko's Cannonsburg lot

Yes, that car is still around. It is probably our number 1 reference car.
