For as long as I can remember, or within the car culture as I've known it; people have been calling Chevy II's and Nova's "Deuces" forever. Not something coined by Yenko in 70, but the culture at large referring to the little Chevy Nova's as a Deuce. It was also used largely on the 32 ford as in Lil' Deuce Coupe.

I'm sure the 70 Yenko Nova owners would like to reserve "Deuce" as exclusive to their pedigree rides, but that simply is not gonna happen until all the old guys who call Nova's and 32 Fords deuce's are gone and buried. This slang word has been used to describe certain two door cars for a very long time.
