I live in Peoria...off of the 17 Fwy heading towards Flagstaff...I'm about 22 miles north of downtown Phoenix...and Scottsdale is about 25 minutes away.

Mesa is about 40 miles from my house.

As far as Barett-Jackson is concerned...click HERE!

Warning...you'll need an hour or so to get through the pictures...there are quite a few...

The first part you'll have to click on the attachments...after awhile I just included them in the posts.

Enjoy!

BTW...congrats on joining! This place is soooooo cool!

Yeah, thanks a lot John!! I got mine in the mail last night. I agree with Bruce I'd love to have a time machine to go back and take a few of these supercars for some test drives and leave a little rubber on the road

Great Article; It documents the Dick Harrell Nickey alliance as January of 1966.

Does any one know Guy Tipton, Dick's assistant at Nickey or the author Bruce Young, who actually test drove the Nickey Camaro around the streets of Chicago?

Very , Thanks John!

btw, does anyone have an original copy of the magazine I could purchase?
