The West Seneca, NY owner had a sign that touted the car as follows...
"Prototype of Bill Jenkins First Factory $$$ sponored Drag Car GRUMPY'S TOY. When Jenkins refused to run a big block in his Nova in 1967, Chevrolet switched to Yenco for the Chevelle, Nova and Camaro factory sponsorship." The sign also claimed "NHRA A/Stock Eliminator 1966-67"
And yes, he spelled Yenko wrong https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif

I think the car could have stood on it's own without the B.S. Hype............But.........Anyone have any Idea what the Nickey Performace package should or would have included for $495 of 1966 money??
