Not only that.. but 1 of them wound up at Bob Harris's place. not sure if it was the one sold new in Clarence. it was partially restored in one of the pole barns. When i saw i,t i looked wide eyed at Bob, he just smiled and said, " yep its a real one". needless to say i touched it all over just to be able to say i did.

its not actually WNY but, Neal Robbins in Bath NY had and restored at least 4 Yenko Deuces of his own. They were in magazines a bunch of times. None of them were sold in WNY as far as i know of. Still kinda local COPOs nonetheless.
