A number of HiP0 cars came from Alan Green Chevrolet, the one owner red/black 435 Corvette that sold at the RM auction recently was an Alan Green car along with a local white/green 435 '67 roadster. The service manager, Dick Tutino, bought a new black/red 435 Corvette and flared and flamed the car right after delivery. This car ended up in the hands of famed Corvette collector, Roby Price, and is now in the hands of Dallas collector, Joe Demesy. It has an upside down ID stamp and started all the questions of why the factory would upside down stamp an engine.

Alan Green also sponsored a T/A car white with Green stripes over the roof.

That white green combo looks better than it sounds.

This is dated I know, But Shay Nichols lived in Corsicana, Tx in 1970.. I know because I was still in high school and would go over to there house and hang around. I bought the hood off her ZL-1. Her grandfather was owner of Heart-Hanks newspapers and funded her race car..They built a Hemi Challenger after the Camaro. Shay and Phil were really nice people. Never acted like I was a punk kid hanging around..AND Shay was HOT!!

You wouldn't believe some of the big name racers that showed up at thier house. I would go to Green Valley Raceway in Ft Worth and race my '69 Camaro and watch her many times..She kept having a problem of freeze plugs pop out will making a run..

I lost touchwith them after 1970 or so.. I read the car was destroyed..Was it involved in a wreck orwhat?

Thamks,
Danny
