The ET Shop was on Cicero Avenue about a mile from Nickey Chevrolet. It was in business at the same location into the 90's. Ed

Re: Yenko Deuce at Oswego drags
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

Re: Yenko Deuce at Oswego drags
You're right. I was thinking of the Chevy Shop on Cicero. It's tough getting old?

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.

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. Jake
