1970 Chevrolet Yenko Deuce - $121k

1 of 175 Yenko Deuce Novas produced. COPO 9010 LT1 engine package. COPO 9737 Sports Car Conversion package. LT1 350/360 HP solid lifter engine. 4-speed transmission with Hurst shifter. 4.10 rear axle ratio. Hood-mounted tach. Power front disc brakes. Fathom Blue with Black interior.

Yenko's Sportscar team completed the conversion of the COPO Novas by adding the SS wheels, Yenko badges, decals and stripes, a Dixco hood tach and a laundry list of performance options. The total of 175 cars consist of 122 four speeds and 53 automatics.

The engine is Chevrolet's 350 cubic-inch, 5.7 liter small-block LT1 V8, capable of producing 360 horsepower and 380 lb.-ft. of torque. This kind of engine was normally found only in Corvettes and Camaro SS models. The Deuce quickly garnered a reputation for running and winning against more powerful and heavier machinery. These cars have their own circle and rarely come up for public auction. When they do prices are high. In 2016 a top tier deuce made $160k.

This example appeared at Mecum and made $121k.
