I can only guess who it was that contacted you.
Did he ask you if it was called the Draggin Deuce?

Al, there were two Citrus Green Deuces sold new out of Sam Leman Chevrolet in Roanoke, IL. Both were 4 speeds and one had power steering. The one without PS is the one pictured above owned by Phil Guilbault and is beautifully restored. The other was in IL the last I heard but was for sale???

Detective Peters, who can you guess it was that called him?
