Default Re: Nickey backward K Sebring 1962

The magazine is TODAYS MOTOR SPORTS June 1962 and the Nickey Nouse wore the number "6." There are many simalarities between Yenko and Nickey. Both did a lot of road racing starting in the late 50s. It appears they both got into sponsoring drag racing for advertising of the 427 1967 Camaro transplant cars and hi po parts. They both seemed to have good connections with Chevy and they both had owned/raced a SR2 experimental Corvette of which only 3 were made and one was a show car. Both also had high performance parts businesses with mail order catalogs.
