Default Citrus Green 70 Deuce in Chicago

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/3327356508.html

Looks like there were 4 1970 CG cars with a manual trans and manual steering. Cool car if it's real.

A friend of mine has a legit 1970 yenko duece for sale..There was only 175 of these made..this is 1 of the last 50 ordered and is 1 od 10 that were citrus green..it has the lt-1 with a muncie m-21 4 speed and a 12 bolt posi.. this was daily driven in the 70s and has about 79,000 miles on it..it has had 1 repaint in early 80s..#s mathing motor,trans and rearend..it has had 3 owners 2 of which were brothers..same owner since 1978..this is driver quality and NOT show quality..it is driven to the local cruise nite once a year and to the store on rare occations..the car is located about 3 1/2 hours north of chicago..you will have to be able to verify funds before the car will be shown..it will be shown in the owners place of business..no trades!!the owner is only selling because he found a property he wants to buy and will not be sold if he decides to finace the property..$85,000 is what it takes to buy this very rare car..no shipping or cashiers checks or any of that bull!!





</div></div>


Certainly looks cool. And for all I know it's real with a legit vin. Question for you experts though- shouldn't this have throttle linkage vs a cable?

Cable linkage is correct.

I heard about this one, might be a new find for the Deuce community. We know where 9 of the 10 CG Deuces were sold from, none of those 9 were from Thorstad - so in theory this car might/should fill in that missing info for us. If so, it can only have 1 body sequence number out of the few hundred thousand Novas in '70! Anyone have the TT info? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] Let's see how good my logic &amp; calculations are!
