Re: "Hoss" Cartwright
The Dan Blocker/Nickey connection is why "Little Hoss" was named. Dan Blocker was a big Chevrolet man, so to speak, and the 302 was a little motor. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: "Hoss" Cartwright
A good friend of mine (Cary Chapman) has often times told me he was at the dealership when Blocker picked up the Z16.
He said he did a smokey burnout while leaving. I have no reason to doubt Cary, I have known him for about five years and he is a good car friend.

Re: "Hoss" Cartwright
Cool info, I had always thought that Big Hoss and Little Hoss came from the Robert Redford movie, but I guess it was released after 1968?
