Yenko Deuce...Cranberry Red #75

[John]

Does anyone know who presently owns a "Cranberry Red Yenko Deuce"...I was told it was #75....and came from Wallace Chevrolet, in New Jersey??
...I met a guy a the Charlotte Auto Fair....that used to own that car.....he said he still had some paperwork on that car....that he would like to get to the present owner.
....Let me know ...and I will get you in contact with him.

Tommy K has a red Wallace Deuce, I believe he bought it from the original owner himself. Marlin would know if there's another red Wallace Deuce out there... Sounds like someone struck gold!

The reference to "#75" is a bit vague, because each yenko deuce actually had two stock numbers. Both of cars listed as stock number '75' are indeed red, but neither is from Wallace, however, Cran Red is actually paint code '75'. See how quickly a statement like this can become confusing

(The stock numbers are unique in that one was preasigned when the cars were ordered by Yenko, the second one was the real one and was asigned when the car was either sold locally or dealer transferred).

The Deuce with preasigned stock number '75' is a cran red car sold out of Loehmann Chev in Waterbury, CT, was restored by Neal Robbins in NY, and is Frankies old car.

The Deuce with postasigned stock number '75' is a cran red car sold out of Dale Chev. in Waukesha, WI and is owned by Glenn Benzel in WI.

There are at least two cran red Deuces sold out of Wallace, one is a 4speed owned by Bill Auckerland in MI, the other is an a/t owned by Tommy K in NJ. Neither of these cars have any reference to the number '75' other than their paint codes.

Sounds good I'm thinking it's most likely the 4speed red wallace deuce owner, the a/t car was bought from the original owner within the last few years. The 4speed car was notorious in north jersey back in it's heyday, and was then purchased by the owner of Parker Filters - who then moved to South Dakota and took the deuce with him. It then bounced to a few owners, then Bill decided to have it restored - can't wait to see it done!
