Default Yenko Optional Twin Sport Mirrors

Well here's another item to create a little head scratching.
I have a '70 Deuce with the twin sport mirror option but have only seen one other car with the same option. Does anyone have any idea about how many Deuces were sold with this particular option? I seen quite a few with the instrument package and none with the hood scoop or rear spoiler option. What's your thoughts?

While most cars did not get the mirror option, I have seen several that have, as well as the Dixco gauge pack and the 3 spoke cushion grip steering wheel. Marlin will chime in with his data, as I'm sure he has records of all this... I know many of the Colonial cars had additional equipment, including the mirrors, but some didn't, I think it was basically a matter of what the dealers checked off on the order blanks. The network dealers used an order form to select any additional options they wanted... I have a blank one around here somewhere i think, but I'm pretty certain the dual rear spoilers and hood scoop were items that never actually made it on any cars, at least none that i know of... the car in the sales flyer has the scoop on it, but it was a pre-production car that wasnt even really a COPO, and was actually a dressed up 250 6 cylinder car that Don put together before the LT-1 cars were even built or delivered to him. Marlin, do you have any info on option breakdowns for the Deuces in the registry?

I think there may be one showing up soon with that optional hood scoop.

I know that all of the known Fencl Tufo cars had options like gauges and fat grip wheels.

I believe those are the right ones there Jeff!!
I think Schoneye needs to buy them and install them along with the scoop
