Default Re: DANA CHEVROLET DEALERSHIPS - West Coast Connection

A friend of mine owns an original 1968 Nickey/Bill Thomas camaro with the stage III option. It is my understanding that his Bill Thomas/Nickey equipped car came from Bill Thomas Racing in Anaheim California not directly through the Nickey Chevrolet Dealership. The car is equipped with the DANA signature hood with the Nickey emblems. A very unique combination. Apparently cars offered through Bill Thomas Racing could be equipped with same hood that DANA Chevrolet was using, manufactured by Berry Plasti-Glass. My friend was fortunate to confirm the hood combination with Bill Thomas senior in the late 80's before his passing.
