I’ve heard 2nd hand stories of this particular car & have even seen these EXACT vintage photos validating it’s existence. It’s a really rare bird, probably being a one-of-one, and we’re fortunate that it might have survived.

Post Fi 57...

Sounds like a cool car....

I'm no FI expert...so tell me what is the big round gizmo on the driver's side of the engine...some kind of air cleaner?

Yes that is the air cleaner. I can tell it isn't the 283 horse version because the air intake tube drops down along the core support and on the 283 version the air intake tube ran to a sheet metal intake scoop on top of the core support. Still a cool car though.

Just awesome!!!

Those pics are so remindful of pulling up to Dave Tinnell's (RIP) shop in KY. There was a silver Yenko Deuce sitting outside looking somewhat forlorn. Carl Dwiggins kept Dave's shop pretty full at the time.

Actually this 150 is something Dwiggins would have happily put in the que for Dave.

My neighbor has a '57 FI 2 door hard top sitting in his back yard. Been there a long time.
