[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Nicely done Ray!!

After reading what you typed, I can decipher more names on the car in this picture. 'Chief Mech. Andy Z' is on the lower front fenders. 'Driver Frank Johanssen' is above the door glass on the roof roll. The pit crew members are on the rear quarters behind the rear wheel, but I can't make out the names. The seller told me this pic was taken at Cecil County dragway. Car is very dark in this b/w photo, so black it is. I don't see any SS markings on it, which is why I suspected that it might be a COPO car from NJ or a Yenko car from PA, as well as the class on the window of SS/DA. There is a big 'Duffys' decal on the front fender, is that a parts place? It's a very cool picture!

Now that you mention Wallace Chev. my conversation with Dan P. is coming back to me. Dan was trying to document one of his '68 Novas that has indications of Motion conversion possibilities, this Nova was out of Wallace in Linden, NJ. Dan had tracked down some people that had told him about these cars, and the possibility that there might be a Wallace/Motion connection much like the Baldwin/Motion deal. Dan had conversed with guys who told him about the H.Hound car. When I first saw a HH pic at the show, (it was a smaller pic with the HH car in the other lane, I didn't buy it) I was surprised because I had thought that the HH car was indeed a Nova, possibly Dan's '68 Nova. I guess not unless there were two HH cars - one Camaro and one Nova? Was the Wallace Nova lettered up?

Awesome pic, the more I study it the more I like it. Would be fun to find it, and put it back as the Huckleberry Hound!

Greg, thanks for the tip on the Chevelle. After reading what you typed I can decipher the lettering on the front fender which does appear to be Musser Bros. I could make out the Bros. part but not the 'Mu' portion. Neat car, has a holeshot on the Camaro, both are seriously wrinkling the slicks!

Thanks again, keep the info flowin!
