I doubt that we'll make it to Collinsville this year. I hope to bring the Nova and the Vega to the show, but I am fairly sure it won't happen this year.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi. The car you guys are talking about belongs to my Dad. He bought it new in 1971 from H&H in Omaha. It is the only Yenko ever sold at that dealership. I came home from the hospital in that car when I was born in 1972 and we still have it today. We get it out every once in a while for special occasions.

Thanks,

Ken Halvorsen

Ken,

That is so cool that you were brought home from the hospital in a Yenko... how many of us can say that? (I was brought home in a '67 Mercury Cougar, not nearly as cool.)

BTW, I live in Lincoln too, I've never seen your dad's Deuce around but I sure hope to sometime!

I just recently purchased a 70 Chevelle LS6 that was sold new at H&H. It's the red one above the Monte Carlo trunk.

Well that is cool. Tell us more about your LS6. How do you know that is your LS6 in that photo?

My car was originally a cranberry red stripe delete car. It also came with the bench seat and 4 speed. I have all owner history and have even spoken with every owner. Every owner but one, went to the same high school. Granted there is a 20 year span in that time. I've also talked to the owners of the dealership and they remembered the car, that is where I got the picture. Some more info for you. I bought the car last July as a roller and with the help of a previous owner with tracked down the original motor. I still do not have the motor yet as the current owner is not ready to sale. Here is a picture from 1974.

Great photos. Love the vintage photos. Good persistence on tracking the orig engine. Do you have orig documentation on this car and know where it was delivered? Red no-stripes is a good look. I don't see your current photo above. Fill out your profile when you get a chance.

Thanks.

Very cool and sinister looking especially without the stripes. Nice ride in Day II clothes! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
