Showed up in the passenger seat, got out on crutches, right leg missing from knee down!! Racing his brother-in-law on snowmobiles, turned into the laneway and BIL was coming hard in the ditch and hit his leg. Guy that bought the green one called me about a year and a half later and asked if I had a 442 with an automatic. I sold the ONLY two unmodified as Yenko added stripes, hood scoops, exhaust tips, etc. Vince told me the other 186 went to Yenko. BUT they were building COPO Novas – LT1 derated from 370 to 360 HP (corporate mandate – no less than 10 pounds per horsepower!!), 4 speed, 4 wheel disc brakes, posi. TILT!! The ‘bean counters’ had shut down the big blocks (warranty claims – 5 year warranty, what could go wrong?). I called them up a year later to see what was next. In 1968 Vince Piggins and Paul Prior of GM High Performance gave me the COPO order numbers for the 427 Camaros and Chevelles. Who out there has ridden in a solid lifter Chevrolet small block like this? Who out there can afford this beauty? The seller has owned the car for five years and it is one of many muscle cars in his collection. While some modifications have been made the original parts come with the sale of the car. The car has headers with electric cut outs and dual exhaust. A total frame off restoration was competed on the car even though it has only covered 26,547 miles. While this car was transformed by Yenko Chevrolet, it was sold through W.R. The wheels look like torque thrust IIs but the ad states that the wheels are super rare Atlas Mags shod in Firestone Wide Oval tires. This car also has 3.55 posi traction rear end and the F41 sport suspension.
What makes the Yenko Deuce so special is the factory engine was replaced with a LT-1 350 cubic inch V8 engine that delivered 360 horsepower. According to Super Chevy, only 25 Yenko Deuces were built in this color and only 14 with 4 speed transmissions.
