Help! 1970 Yenko Duece Nova picture needed
 

If anyone out there owns a 1970 Yenko Deuce Nova with the three spoke sport steering wheel, and would like to participate in a Camaro Research Group steering wheel report, please let me know.

Basically I need a good high resolution picture of the steering wheel in a straight on position to use in the report as a comparison shot to the Camaro steering wheels.

Thanks in advance

FYI the 3 spoke wheel in a Deuce was not a GM option on Novas, COPO or otherwise. It was a dealer add-on through Yenko, simply because Don liked the look of them. Its only factory application was on a 1970 Buick GSX. In comparison to the camaro/chevelle sport steering wheel the GSX rim is thicker, has a different grain texture, and no stainless band on the outside or fingergrips molded on the back.

Here's the only pic you really need to see the obvious differences.

If you need more info on these wheels, below is a link to an entertaining old thread...and there's actually some useful info and photos buried within the garbage. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Joe, yes I did know this wheel was only installed from the factory in the GSX, but I also need to show that it was installed in the Nova by Yenko. The main problem though, is that I also need permission from the photographer to use the picture in the report, so that's why I'm looking for someone that actually owns a 70 Yenko Deuce Nova AND a 1970 Buick GSX so they can take the picture. I've got several picture from the internet, but none I can use because of the permission problem. Which is too bad really because a few of the ones I found on the internet are great shots!

I like that second shot of the comparison. I'm assuming it's a picture taken by you? Would it be possible to use it in the report?

Bruce, I'm not sure what your reply means.

Thanks again guys.

Here's another I found, you can use it too.

Thanks a ton Joe. I will definately use that comparison shot in the report. I think I have a line on the 70 GSX picture, so I'll finally be done!! It's only taken a year!!

Bert...sorry...I should have been more clear. Click on the link that Joe provided to you and read the posts within the link...then you will understand what I mean.

Bert...also get in touch with Jacquie (Zee28) she has a GSX...and I'm sure that she;d take a pic for you! She's a great lady!

Thanks Bruce. Now I see what you mean.

I DID get a picture from Jim Lore over at the Buick site, so I'm FINALLY done!!!! It's been a long time writing this thing, but I'm hoping it'll be worth it. It'll take a few weeks to go through the CRG screening process, but once that's done, it'll be posted.

Stay tuned...

Ed
