Default Re: Roof Deuce Restoration

Joe is correct, that date is would be a 4 17 as letters were not used. The wheel dates are spot on with the other original deuce wheels, as they were purchased directly from MotorWheel by Yenko - not from GM. He apparently placed a pretty big order all at once given the consistency of dates amongst the cars. Although Yenko obviously had plenty of stock, if he could get away with not switching out the wheels on a given Deuce - he would. But one original owner insisted that they change the wheels, so they did - but simply tossed a handful of 'Y' centercap decals on the front seat!

Sam, why no overspray???
