[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Dug up my notes on this '69 Yenko Nova. Car was 'found' in 1986 by a guy in St Paul, MN (not Vince E.), who tracked it down because he knew it was a Yenko. The car was in Beaverdale, PA at that time and was painted maroon,owner was Richard S (1981-1986 est) who bought it from his friend John M for $1,000. John M bought from ? for $100 somewhere around '75 est.

We estimate that the car had come into PA sometime between '74 and '75, but since the car was found we didn't really do a lot of digging with the PA DMV. The car appears to have spent its early life in MD, beginning in Cumberland, MD in '72 and then migrated all the way to eastern MD - Elkton in Cecil County to be exact - in '73 to a guy named Freddie (who might have been a car dealer), before it ended up in PA. Somewhere along the way I think it got an R title in MD (not in PA), but I can't find those notes.

PS: just found my additional notes, I hadn't filed them yet. Here's the general ownership history as I've researched:

5/27/70 - Charles K in Lavale, MD, could have been the orig owner, he financed $1,927.
8/12/71 - Walter H in Cumberland, MD, pays $2,250 but finances $3,119 (must have rolled in another loan).
8/04/72 - James S in Cumberland, MD, pays ?
11/26/73 - Freddie F in Elkton, MD, pays $1,200
4/01/74 - title is reassigned by Freddie, typically only done by dealers. This is also the same date that Freddie files a formal 'Request to Waive Inspection Prior to Re-Building a Motor Vehicle'. So, one could speculate that Freddie is a used car dealer who bought a wreck, theft or flood vehicle from western MD and rebuilt it for resale at his place in eastern MD. Car then goes to PA.
10/17/75 - John M in PA
1981 - 1986 Richard S in Beaverdale, PA
1986 - went to MN, and eventually to Mike Miller in NC then to Danny in Canada.
