Marlin,

Here is some additional information that I came up with during my search for the Nichols'.

There is a guy here in Rogers by the name of Rick Blevins who has been around here for ages and was/is into muscle cars. His dad used to own the Chrysler dealership here in Rogers during the late '60's and early '70's.
Anyway, I asked him if he had ever run across the Nichols' and their Duece. He seems to remember one but he thought the owner was either a Tim Jermeir or Larry Shelley. What he could not remember was exactly what color it was and if it was a Yenko car. May have been a Nicky car. And the color, he thought, was charcoal gray.

Anyway, I will try to get in touch with Larry Shelley tonight. He still lives in the area. Am still trying to track down the Nichols' and Dean Bitner for you as well.
