<font color="#006600">"This Forest Green Yenko Deuce Nova is one of 25 produced in this popular color, and so it should be no surprise that 20 of them are existing today. This car is an automatic, without power steering, 1 of 4 so equipped in this color. This particular deuce was the 97th car produced, and was purchased many years ago as it was left sitting on the front lawn by the original owner. Since then the car has led a very sheltered life inside the showroom of the J&amp;W Nova Parts Co. This car still has its original paint &amp; stripes, along with some common day 2 additions."

"This Yenko Deuce was sold new at Tamson Chevrolet in Danville, VA along with 5 other Deuces. Tamson received 4 automatics and 2 four speeds on 6/25/70, J&amp;W now owns 3 of the automatics! This Deuce has one dealer installed option; Special Sport Mirrors, that were essentially borrowed from the Hurst/Olds’ and AMC Scramblers. This option was fairly common compared to the other dealer installed options, but made it hard to open the wing windows, and were frequently discarded."
