The ET shop was on Belmont ave in Chicago then moved to a Goodyear dealer on Grand just east of Harlem and then opened a second shop in Addison. They used to sponsor my Chevelle. I do not remember them being on Cicero The Chevy shop was on Cicero

You're right. I was thinking of the Chevy Shop on Cicero. It's tough getting old?

<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="text-decoration: underline">Schonye - what class did he race in? </span></span>

I remember the car. He probably raced in a bracket class called Run Tuff Eliminator &quot;RTE&quot;

Re: Yenko Deuce at Oswego drags
 

Don't remember what class he raced in. I know there are some pics in the archives here of it. On the hood he had little in front of the deuce decal and coupe after it.
I think he's in the Rockford area. I had his nbr somewhere. Just not sure where.

Schoneye's got the story nailed. I recall have 2 pictures of this car with the wheels up (no jack stands!), somewhere......

Re: Yenko Deuce at Oswego drags
 

A car just like that was at a local car show this month, real window sticker, yenko docs, etc. License plate reads as 'a real one' I think. I dont live that far from oswego, it has to be the same car. Fully restored and perfect. I will post some pictures soon of it that I took. Nice to see some past history of it on this thread.

That's where I am at - never seen the car at any events locally here or even heard about it - would love to know more if it is local here.
