Unbeatable team involved there ! All you had to do to order your Nickey Camaro was pick up the phone and call Dick Harrell !!! Things were just a tad simpler and cooler then. Wonder if you could pick up the phone and call Warren Johnson and pick up anything today !!

Ad also says: "Dickie Harrell will be at Nickey's all year round (except on race days) to help you select the proper parts and equipment for your car."

Uhh, Mr. Harrell, I was wondering if the Offenhauser dual Quadrajet intake for 396-427s is the hot tip for the street?

(Honest, there's an Offy dual Q-jet intake on the parts list!)

Re: 'Hot Rod' Novemver of 1966
 

Dual Quads was standard on the Stage III option.

Re: 'Hot Rod' Novemver of 1966
 

Yeah, but dual Quadrajets? The Q-jet part is what caught my eye. I assume most guys preferred dual Holleys or Carter AFBs?

Ok here is a tough one, I think? The Bill Thomas building in Anaheim California had two signs displayed in the shape of the Crests above. On one side of his shop was the Nickey Chicago Crest and on the other side the BTRC crest.

I believe that you had to walk under the Nickey crest in order to enter the building, other than using a garage door.

Does anyone have a picture of this?

Re: 'Hot Rod' Novemver of 1966
 

guys, talking about daul quads!!! i got a nos. offenhauser. aluminum intake for a bblock chevy. it;s for holley carbs. don;t know where it orginaly came from? but it;s a neat part. maybe end up on a s/stock car one day? thanks bbbenny

Re: 'Hot Rod' Novemver of 1966
 

I have never seen a dual quadrajet either, but it is listed.

It seems that Nickey used both carbs, AFBs early on then Holleys later, but a customer could still order anything they wanted.

BBB, does yours have a universal carb flang and the 360 degree denotation.
