Yenko Deuce Pics

[DarrenX33]

Some time back I remember us looking at a drivers side photo posted or linked by someone of a Citrus deuce sitting in a driveway and wondering if it was real or not. I believe it was from the same area in Illinois... It was a recent photo. I'll have to dig thru the search... You remember this M? When discussing the photo we did reference that it was not Bob's car...

I have been told by a friend that the father of the young man that has the Yenko Deuce in Ottawa, Il now says it is a clone. I will find out for sure.
Now that I know the one that I started the thread about is accounted for here is some info.
James Ohlendorf ( the tall lanky kid in the 2nd photo) was the second owner of the car. A guy named Bomgarts bought in new I believe at Lehman's. He hit a mailbox with it and somehow Jim's dad (owner of Ottawa engine ended up with the car and it eventually went to Jim). Jim raced it a few times at Oswego and ran some 12.70's spinning the tires hard through first.
I am going to see Jim this weekend and I am going to see if he has any interesting stuff on the car.

Ask that Ottawa owner if his Citrus was at Morris 05.

Yes, it was the one in Morris. After I heard about the deuce at Morris car show I started digging and found the car in Ottawa. From then until a couple of weeks ago I have been trying to find out if it was real or not. I am going to get over to his house when it warms up and I will get the VIN to confirm.
