Nice!!
After John's blue deuce, your red deuce, and now Geno's red deuce, I think you have the record for restoring the most Deuces!

Nice car Ken!
I sat down and talked with Mr.Ed today.He had some very cool things to say about the old days.He has some records to go through,and may have something on your Fencl-Tufo Deuce.No promises though.
It's funny,he remembers strongly how in 1970,NO ONE wanted a Hi-perf Nova.Through out the following years he vividly recalls this.
Now today that has all changed.
I will let you know what comes up.
Rick

Thank you all for the compliments on the car. Also thanks to all the folks who were involved in helping this car come to Ia. We appreciate it more than we can say.
Also finding the link to mr Ed, and his brother has been way cool. As Rick said he is a wealth of knowledge.
Tommorrow night she goes to her first cruise as the Eastern Ia. chapter NNN is comeing to Davenport for the north park cruise.

Ken I JUST saw another Fencil-Tufo "day 2" Fathom Green Deuce tonight. I was at Downers Grove IL cruise night and their is a local guy that has owned this Deuce from 1976 or 79 till present day. Marlin knows the guy and the car. I can't remember his name but the car is YS-099. I met the guy at Aurora cruise night last month. He is a Aurora police officer and was walking the beat when Bill Prithard introduced me to him while we were at the show. This is the same car that I saw last year at Super Chevy, Joliet IL and took pics of. If anybody is interested I can bring the last year Super Chevy pics of this car pics home from work to scan & post them.

Cool to see another day 2 Deuce. BTW Ken those Mickeys DO hook! I have them on my Velle and love them!

Frank, thats Dan Hornbeck. We met him in 2000 when Jon Cronkleton and I had our deuces in the showcase at vettefest. Very nice guy, and thats my favorite forest green deuce. That car had a lot of influence on how this red car was done. Really liked it's day two look. My hope is to someday get a picture of these two F/T deuces together. Would be really neat to have Mr. Ed standing between the two of them, just like an old Fencil Tufo ad. Schonye
